They're handing out awards
Attention all YouTube contributors: Judges for The George Foster Peabody Awards, heretofore TV's most prestigious award, want you to pester them for one of their trophies. "Original broadcast, cablecast and webcast programs presented in 2006 are eligible," their press release reads, so that means you.
Give them an avalanche of entries so overwhelming their eyes'll be bloodshot for months. I'm pretty sure if Aleksey Vayner - which seems misspelled and grammatically incorrect simultaneously; shouldn't it be "more vain?" - submits his video resume, he'd have to add another page to his 11-page resume including his Peabody victory.

David Kronke was appointed Mayor of Television after a bloodless coup in 2000. Since then, he has improved infrastructure, championed greater educational opportunities and fought for reforms that have utterly erased corruption and incompetence from the television industry. Since Mr. Kronke has ascended to power, Television is a far better place.
