Koufax Award Winner: Daily Kos

One of my favorite daily information resource for U.S. politics, the website Daily Kos, just won the Koufax Award for Best Blog. It deserves the award for so many reasons, writes Dwight Meredith: "The biggest reasons are the community moderation and the constant innovation in the way the site works to build community. I like what (Daily Kos founder) Markos Moulitsas writes for the most part, and think his brevity and summaries are terrific. Many of the front-page regular posters are also excellent. Members of the Daily Kos community have effectively taken on issues as investigative journalists, researchers, and activists. Daily Kos is proving that blogs and bloggers can make a real difference in the world."
