Jack Cashill is the "journalist" who endeared himself to the ultra-Right by claiming that Bill Ayers ghost wrote
Obama's Dreams From My Father. A prolific writer of equally specious right-wing blather for Joe Farah's cash cow "World news Daily," Cashill how now demonstrated again the mad research skillz which have led him to such... uh....
original and
unusual conclusions as those found in his own books.

Jack Cashill Brags About Fake Award From Fake Law School
In the Media Matters-themed article that can be seen at the bottom of the screenshot above, Cashill complains about how he is not taken seriously as a journalist or a researcher. Perhaps this is why. He's bragging about having won a nonexistent award, from a nonexistent law school. Not just in passing, or appended to a bio; it's prominently singled out at the top of his website. Since he links to the page where Olsen made up this crap about an award, Cashill is also fully aware of what the website for LysanderSpoonerLawSchool.org looks like, and it looks nothing like an actual law school website.
So if he can't spot the difference between a law school website and an internet troll's blog, and if he can't be bothered to take two seconds to do a web search for the 'school' that supposedly honored him, why should anyone take him seriously about his ability to spot similarities between writing styles?
