| Thanks margo. I feel bad for having praised Johnstone's article and not having really noticed this. I suppose I read it quickly and was focussed on the part about Julian. But it really was a gratuitous smear, and a particularly nasty one in the context: i.e. of a mainstream media trying to discredit her because she is such an effective and articulate advocate for her son. Johnstone has done a lot of great work in so many areas, it's a shame to see such egregious journalistic malfeasance - as you say, probably out of laziness - in this case. I hope she publicly apologizes. |
