The Remmys Dysfunctional Media Award Nominations: MAGA Meat, Sartorial Slander, and Vatican Violations

Every so often, we gather some of the most flawed pieces of journalism and nominate them for the less-than-prestigious “award” of our not-so-distinguished Remmy Award. Once the year wraps up, we honor the best ones by collecting samples across various categories and carefully selecting the most deserving performances. Here are the newest contenders for The Remmys, beginning with a dose of Easter chaos.

Distinguished Breaking News

“An embarrassing gaffe”

“A glaring faux pas”

“He broke one of the most notorious Vatican rules”

The recent expressive critiques from Archaki concerning VP JD Vance stemmed from a photo of him holding his son while gazing up at the Sistine Chapel. It appears that this incident may have breached certain Catholic guidelines!

Then the very same article provided entirely disqualifying evidence of the bleating in the headlines and text. 

According to a source familiar with the situation as reported by the Daily Beast, the Vatican had granted special permission for the said photographer to capture images inside the Sistine Chapel.

It is difficult to find a more entertainingly ridiculous entry than when a news report debunks itself.

Distinguished National Reporting

This was a remarkable dose of reporting for various reasons. First, this is a claim that does not appear to be backed by anything substantive; the only tangible evidence this was occurring is that some people on TikTok were posting videos on how to dye potatoes, if you have challenges getting eggs. 

But the other reason this was a farce is that the cost of eggs had fallen to levels seen last spring, and a point lower than when Trump took office in January.

Distinguished Photojournalism

Framing political figures is a favorite side venture for photographers. Consider how frequently during the Obama years we would see him photographed at angles where background images would have him portrayed with a halo effect. Well Mr. Brandon decided to go in a different direction.

During the White House Easter Egg Roll, he moved into position to get President Trump shown with bunny ears, conveniently enough.

Distinguished Cultural Criticism

There was a brief uproar in the media when it was shown that President Trump was seen in a blue suit at the funeral of Pope Francis. Fortune Magazine jump-started this shriekfest by showing the president as the lone person in blue, yet this was a complete sham. A wide angle of the same image showed how numerous attendees were also in blue, but Fortune ran their cropped photo to imply something else.

Most amusing was once it was pointed out that former President Biden was also on the scene in a navy blazer, the revisionist reporting began. Note how this one men’s fashion expert moved from a firm “only black” declaration to then excuse President Silveralert as appropriate in dark blue, but Trump was still offensive because of a lighter hue.

Distinguished Feature Writing

We have never understood the compulsion in the press to find a rather mundane activity in the culture performed by many and try to attach a nefarious approach to it because certain people from unacceptable far-right enclaves are engaged in it. We have been told, for instance, that working out is a totalitarian practice, or that wearing Hawaiian shirts is a form of white supremacy. Now comes the latest claim that defies everything from shame to common sense.

Vanity Fair is now telling us that consuming protein is an indicator that someone is MAGA. Making this claim ironclad is the fact that we see the examples of this coming from those notable MAGA news outlets, the New York Times, Vogue Magazine, and The New Yorker.

The Silver Ricecake Platter for Content-free Reporting (Sponsored by Quaker)

We still cannot fathom why anyone cares a whit what Prince and his bride are doing, but there is apparently enough interest to justify covering them. That said, would it be too much to ask that you have something substantive to report? 

We get the lowdown…for some reason…that Prince Hank and his wife Meghan have nicknames for each other. They are “H” and “M”, we are told, and we are provided details about what this mystery means. Hopefully this exposé can lead to another cipher seen on Megan’s new home style show – maybe we can learn the secret message behind the cryptically-named “P.B.& J. sandwiches” that she crafted!

Distinguished Cultural Commentary

It is always fun when we see cloistered journalists daring to leave their insulated bubbles and venture out into the world of the common man, behaving as if they are like Jane Goodall in the jungles and making discoveries. Here we have the paper’s “shopping and fashion” correspondent noticing the hot new “trend” to come across her field of vision. 

It is rather obvious that Ms. Sidell has very little exposure to evangelicals in her daily life as she details that this “new” fashion feature exploding across the landscape involves Christians wearing necklaces with a cross pendant.
