Shirley MacLaine and the New Age

To cover a baseball game, do you assign a journalist who hates baseball? Why, in the name of fairness and informative reporting, did you print this insulting, negatively biased Shirley MacLaine review?

For those of us who have studied metaphysics and were unable to attend her seminar, your article could have been a pleasure to read. But with a subtle sneer, Roraback quoted startling statements out of context, without adequate clarification. However, the media have done a lot of Shirley bashing lately, so why should one be surprised?
