18. It was odd....

Sun Jan 5, 2014, 06:07 PM

Jan 2014

No critical thinking from the 'reporter' (news personality?) at all.

It bothered me. Not what I expect from NPR......but not the first time recently I've thought WTF? are they doing. Things have changed and not for the better.

At the very least I wondered if the parents of the kid who thought he was shot down in WW2 were ever suspected as a potential source of the 'memories'. I do recall them being identified as Christian. That's a little odd all by itself.......when a person is identified first and foremost by their religious affiliation. Makes me wonder if that was how they were identified because that's how they identified themselves.......which is to say.........fundamentalists.

Might have just been more crappy reporting.

Wonder how much the guy had to 'donate' to get the advertising for his book?
