Faux News Press (FNP)__WASHINGTON. Today, according to usually reliable sources close to The Washington Post, Mr. Donald Graham will unveil the new, prestigious award which the Post will bestow on “People Of Sexually Ambiguous Coloration.” This award, which will be called the “Myra Breckinridge Award,” is to go to any worthy member of this group whose accomplishments seem to the Post Selection Committee to be “outstanding.” Apparently, Mr. Graham is looking at achievements in areas that are especially beneficial to humankind, such as politics, entertainment, literature, music and the stage.

On the basis of the criteria suggested by these leaks the first recipient may well be someone whose accomplishments rival those of the following journalist’s “dream team”: Barbra Streisand, Janet Reno, Barbara Friedan, Eleanor Roosevelt, Roberta Achtenberg, Bella Abzug, Barney Frank, David Geffen, Norman Mailer, Brian Epstein, David Bowie, MIck Jagger, Leonard Bernstein, Marvin Gay, Donnie Graham, Sal Menio, Oliver Stone, Richard Raskind (aka, Renee Richards) and Victor Mature. There are probably many other worthy contenders in sports, science, religion and business.

Rep. Lance Wiggle (D-CA), head of the Congressional Gay Caucus, has suggested that either Eddie Murphy, Dustin Hoffman, and/or Martin Lawrence, or all three, might well be considered for the first recipient of The Washington Post’s new award, based on their outstanding depictions of men who dress like women.

The majestic vision of Donald Graham has not gone unnoticed by the world’s senior leadership. He is said to be considered a strong contender for a Nobel Peace Prize.

When FNP asked Emil, Mr. Graham’s companion, who he thought should win this new honor, he considered a moment, smiled, and said: “Oui! Vive la change!”

As FNP is a small, English-speaking branch of the media, his answer seemed cryptic. We have called the French Embassy to ask for a translation, but no one from the embassy has returned our call.
