Re: Octavia E. Butler against Lovecraft (World Fantasy Award).
Aside from that, I think the main reason to get rid of Lovecraft has never been about how terrible of a writer he is, but about him being a racist. And that seems a good reason. It after all isn't like the Goncourt award something that he himself started.
