Long before the world tied together hockey moms, pit bulls, and lipstick, Shannyn Moore was on the radio and blogging in Alaska doing what the blogosphere should be proud of doing, holding the feet of politicians to the fire. Clearly, Moore has been a nasty thorn in the side of soon-to-be former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin, calling attention to numerous allegations of misconduct.And our Wings of Justice award is geared to reward those people such as Shannyn Moore. She has been in the lion's den for a long time dealing with one of politics' most proficient liars. Bravery and courage are two traits you need to go repeatedly into that lion's den. And Shannyn Moore clearly has those, and we gladly give her the Wings of Justice award.
WooHoo! I swear every day I become prouder and prouder of Shannyn and the rest of my Alaska blogger friends.
It is such an a honor to be included with such an amazing group of patriots. I love you guys!
If you have a moment today please go over to Shannyn's site and give her a big internet hug.
I don't remember all the details, but I am thinking that the radio station that lost her may be regretting that decision. Her new station should be awfully happpy with her national recognition, too. Think they might give her some more air time now?

ReplyDeleteJoann Grimes is a “Guest Opinion Blogger” for adn. Her blog is listed under BLOGS - Community Blogs - Alaska Voices
Her blog entry re: Shannyn Moore http://community.adn.com/adn/node/142241
states “…a woman, I’d never heard of before on the news last night”. Which certainly indicates Grimes is out of touch with the Alaska blog scene.
Grimes also seems very out of touch with regard to the laws on defamation and public figures. She seems to really enjoy her own ignorance. Her “education” is starting to stack up in the collected comments. Worth the read, IMO.
You know, with all the ridicule Sarah Palin is going through (although much deserved) it must be even more painful that her nemesis, our very own Shannyn Moore, is getting such national recognition for being what she will never be. Professional. Articulate. Intelligent. Gee, I almost feel sorry for her...almost.
ReplyDeleteExcellent!!!
ReplyDeleteShannyn Moore is indeed brave and courageous. Ms. Moore is probably facing more harrassment from the types of crazy people Palin attracts. And, all because she dared question the governor's actions and lies. Besides that loony, libelous blog post from that Joann Grimes lady on ADN, I just saw a comment on her site that looked like some kind of threat against her from a deranged Palin fan:

I know Shannyn is smart but, Gryphen, I hope you can tell her to take extra precautions.
