【Dear Utol (2025): Catfish Episode 46】

President Donald Trump's Fake News Awards were,Dear Utol (2025): Catfish Episode 46 perhaps unsurprisingly, a complete and total disaster.

After weeks of anticipation the event turned out to be, well, not an event at all. In fact it was just a quick listicle which, for many, displayed as a 404 page.

Earlier this month, Trump boasted that he would hold "THE MOST DISHONEST & CORRUPT MEDIA AWARDS OF THE YEAR." The made up award show was supposed to criticize various news outlets for their reporting of the president. But a day before the event was initially scheduled, Trump tweeted that it would happening on Jan. 17 instead.

On Wednesday, Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders had no answers at the daily briefing as to when or how the awards would be held, only stating that there would be an announcement later on.

People anxiously watched Twitter for any news, just as Trump would have wanted, considering he often runs his presidency like a reality TV show. But when the announcement came at 8 p.m. ET on Wednesday, it brought down the related page, which was hosted on the GOP's website.

However, using a web archive, we were able to grab some screenshots of the awards, which called out the New York Times, CNN andTime among others. Fox News also reported the same list.

The real kicker on the list is number 11.

"And last, but not least: 'RUSSIA COLLUSION!' Russian collusion is perhaps the greatest hoax perpetrated on the American people. THERE IS NO COLLUSION!" the post reads.

People were quick to poke fun at Trump’s failed attempt at a fake award show, some drawing comparisons to his presidency.
