It's basic Journalism 101 not to state as a fact that someone has caused 'harm' to someone when it's up for debate, writes QuinHillyer. 'The greater darkness is that of a newspaper that would run such hideously biased, anti-Christian garbage.'
Daniel Desrochers's article, which was the newspaper’s entire-front-page lead story on Easter Sunday, was headlined “Running God’s way: Can Vicky Hartzler’s ‘conservative biblical values’ win a Senate seat?” The reporter’s sneering contempt for Hartzler’s faith all but drips off the page. The article treats her conservative Christianity as exotic and perhaps threatening, as though it’s a contagion infecting American life.
It's basic Journalism 101 not to state as a fact that someone has caused “harm” to someone else when the entire debate is about what actually causes harm and why. Never does the reporter bother to show any actual evidence that the Christian Right was even known for opposing civil rights. It is an assertion that surely would be news to the Southern black Republicans included among the leaders of state Christian Coalition groups in the 1980s and to Louisiana Christian Coalition’s leadership against neo-Nazi David Duke in Louisiana in 1989-91.
