Doug Wilson, on Blog & Mablog, speaks about how the CNN story was a “blessing for us in many ways.”
“So last week CNN dropped a report that they had put together on all the doings out here in Moscow. That piece was a blessing for us in many ways, and I thought to take a few minutes to explain why and how.
After the release, I wrote to Pamela Brown, our interviewer, and thanked her for the job that she and her team did. And here is why I did that. I know for a fact—from our preliminary discussions with CNN, from the time they spent here in Moscow, and from their follow-up fact-checking questions, that they were working hard to keep it from being a hit piece. To be clear, they did not shake free of their foundational assumptions—but that is quite a different thing. They did bring up the standard objections, however tired, and interviewed one representative of the kind of group that would make such objections (e.g. the reverend lady). That is what a lot of our people noticed.”
