Australian Tumbleweed Awards 2011 – Winner – Worst Coverage of Comedy.

Australian Tumbleweed Awards 2011 - Winner - Worst Coverage of Comedy: The entire media's refusal to accept that Angry Boys was awful - 48.60%. Runners-Up: Tabloid outrage about the flag sex scene in At Home With Julia - 27.10%, The endless puff pieces about Laid (Fairfax) - 24.30%. Voter Quotes: "The Australian media won't accept a lot of things- like most illegal immigrants arrive by plane, most welfare fraud is committed by aged pensioners and the murder rate in Victoria was higher in the 1950s. There are some facts you cannot accept and Chris Lilley not being a genius is one of them." "It was awful, wasn't it?" "I made it to episode 4 and still hadn't laughed." Last Year's Winner: The endless puff pieces about Hey Hey It's Saturday.
