What if (hypothetically speaking):
- this year's awards are "suspended"
- list of award winners get know anyway and is published on media locally and overseas
- next year the FCC committee draft a new list for the 2023 press freedom awards
- next year's awards are also "suspended"
- award winners list get leaked anyway...and published on media both locally and overseas
- rinse and repeat
It's clear that soon enough there won't be anyone left to "award", but from the PoV or FCC, sounds like a legit plan?
