The Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America do not run the Hugo Awards. Nor was this controversy anything to do with the Hugos. The fuss you are thinking of was about the nomination of WEAT in the Best Script category of the Nebula Awards (which are run by SFWA). The Hugos are run by the World Science Fiction Society, a fan organization. WEAT was indeed nominated for a Hugo (<a href="http://www.thehugoawards.org/?p=142" rel="nofollow">see here</a>). To my knowledge, no one has complained about this (other than the usual bitching that other productions were better). It might even win, although to do so it has to beat a couple of <em>Doctor Who</em> episodes, and Stephen Moffat has won that category for the past two years.
