Dan Rather’s 1972 Emmy for his coverage of the shooting of Governor George Wallace on the CBS Evening News with Walter Cronkite sold on eBay for $2,500. Rather maintains that he had nothing to do with the sale.

On one hand, that’s more than the possibly fake Britney Spears tank top and jeans went for.

On the other hand, no one who could win an Emmy for news coverage has the means to buy one on eBay.
