Severin has been severly embarrassed by the revelations of all the things he has simply made up - his Pulitzer - his "on-line equivalent of the Pulitzer" - his Harvard Law degree - his award for his MNBC column - and now it turns out that the Masters Degree from Boston University is a figment of his imagination. He just makes things up to give him cred. Who wants to listen to someone like that.

Severin has been having problems in the truth department. Not only did he claim to have a Pulitzer Prize that he didn't have - his cover up made it worse. He claimed to have the on-line equivalent. There is no on-line equivalent. He claims to have won an award for his columns on MSNBC. See a column by Dan Kennedy about that. MSNBC won an award for its web site - it is user friendly and has nice interactive features. It is certainly not a award that in any way acknowledges Mr. Severin's writings. He also claimed numerous times to have earned a Masters Degree from Boston University. He didn't. And again his cover-up made it worse. He claimed to have remembered "receiving the sheepskin in the mail". He didn't. He can't tell the difference between what he makes up and what it real.
