That was my thought too.

It's weird that he's comparing writers so different. Did he pick Le Guin because she's the only famous female author he can think of? Why not compare a famous male author who is more like McGuire? Otherwise it sounds as if he thinks Le Guin is the only female author who can win the Hugo.

Of course, I haven't looked at the awards lists for the past few decades, maybe she is. Wait, no, because I've seen in Bujold's author bio that Bujold has a number of them (which is one thing the Staffers' Book Review guy is complaining about).
