On the 3rd I wrote about the Kurt Eichenwald piece that appeared in Newsweek. It has been sifted and sorted, poked and prodded -- from the right and left -- until there is little left of it that will hold water. Despite that fact, Newsweek has stubbornly said, "We stand by our story." In fairness, they have published online A Response to Newsweek on the Bible by Michael Brown. Brown has served as an adjunct professor at several theological seminaries and hosts The Line of Fire radio talk show.
It is worthwhile to notice that Newsweek reported that many "expressed anger" over their article. No matter how hot the anger and deep the frustration, neither the author nor anyone at Newsweek was punished for writing and publishing the derogatory piece.
Justin Taylor wrote that Eichenwald's "piece reads like someone trying to describe the landscape of North America after a first-time visit to just one city."
