Contrary to what their sportscasting peers like to introduce them as - Broadcasters and sportswriters are NOT Hall-of-Famers. They are HONORED with an award given by the HOF. They are NOT inductees, but honorees. There's a big difference (especially for we HOF card collectors). There is also another award given (fairly new), called the Buck O'Neil award, which honors folks whose main contribution is the promotion of the game of baseball. They don't give it out every year - I believe there have only been three recipients so far. But that would seem to be the appropriate award for this case.
