They didn't mention Corbyn, Chomsky or the Japanese winning it, or the presentation. Just hopped on to the "British media not covering!" bandwagon. It's been won in the past by Chelsea Manning and the people of Lampedusa (handling Mediterranean refugees), for instance, but basically the media just doesn't cover it.
