Can someone make sense of the NTSB's website? I'm on my phone and it's too wonky for me to try to use their search engine right now.

Re: DiscussMormonism Triumphs Again as "Witnesses" Garners Top Prize

Dr. Scratch is too modest to mention his role in the film’s award, but I will. I trust his name appears in the film’s credits as a special adviser.
