Any journalist who has published a Pit Bull advocacy article in a newspaper, blog, or website is eligible for the SRUV HOS. Nominees will be awarded points based on the following standards:

1. The journalist receives one point for each term or rhetorical device from the Maul Talk Manual;
2. The journalist receives one point for each image of a Pit Bull with infants, in affectionate poses with adults, or in a winsome pose;
3. The journalist receives a point for each Pit Bull advocate cited; 
4. The journalist receives a point for each citation or link from a fake science source such as the NCRC (National Canine Research Council);
5. The journalist receives a point for each perceived expert cited or quoted.

SRUV will not attempt to score inaccuracies, distortions, or omissions.

SRUV accepts nominations from the general public. Please send a link to the article, along with any supporting links, history, or documents.
