PRX Wins Nobel Piece Prize!

Hi friend of PRX,

It's an inconvenient truth, but Al Gore is going to have some company in Sweden! Yup, PRX is picking up the little know Nobel Piece Prize from some guy in a tux. The citation praises PRX for saving producers time and money and increasing opportunity for anyone with a microphone. We'll be sure to thank people like these for making our visit to Stockholm possible:

Peace. Out,
