From the Jerusalem Post:

PLO bestows journalism award on Helen Thomas

US reporter, forced into retirement after controversial remarks about Jews, hailed for “supporting Palestine in the West.”

NEW YORK (JTA) – Longtime White House reporter Helen Thomas received a prize in journalism from a representative of Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas.

Thomas, 91, who was forced into retirement two years ago after making controversial remarks about Jews and Israel, was recognized for her journalism career and commitment to the Palestinian cause. Hanan Ashrawi, a member of the Executive Committee of the PLO, presented Thomas with the award on behalf of Abbas, who is also head of the PLO.

I think this speaks for itself. And further, I’ll bet Thomas and any number of DC Leftists are proud of her “accomplishment.”
