The Five co-host Greg Gutfeld was honored with the Barbara Olson award from the American Spectator magazine tonight at their 50th anniversary event.

Gutfeld’s first journalism job was at the magazine.

“It’s an honor and a humbling one at that to accept an award bearing the name of Barbara Olson,” said Gutfeld. “She was a tough lady, all the way to the end, and an inspiration to us all.”
