Good for her, and I admire her ethical position. That said, I wish that she or another laureate would actually use their press conference to denounce the Nobel Prize in Literature committee for having given one to Bob Dylan. A big ask, but someone needs to do it.
Why? It's in the past and won't change anymore. Why should she waste her breath on commenting on that. She is using the attention to make a point about war and people dying and you are worrying about Bob Dylan?
