“”60 Minutes is a serious news organisation”

Fake but accurate

I would be mildly interested had the same level of critical scrutiny been applied to the books allegedly authored by his Zero-ness.

I despise “60 Minutes”.

BUT.....

I read half of “3 Cups....” after I heard Bill Bennett endorse it on the air.

(That should have been a warning sign all by itself.)

Accuracy aside, Greg Mortenson wrote the book in a tone of narcissism, self-congratulation and self-canonization.

He glowingly compared his own virtue to that of Mother Theresa about halfway through the bookk.

I’ve got theological differences with M.T., but I had to drop the book there.
