It’s no doubt the case that these two large newspapers, The Daily Nation and The Standard, have access to a wide range of records and fact-checking resources, particularly those related to their home city of Nairobi (the same city where David was born and died). It’s taking people a while, it appears, to grasp the full significance of having both papers affirm that David Opiya was Ruth’s son and Mark’s brother. Sooner or later it will sink in.
It will sink in to anyone with enough reading comprehension that the articles you used to spin your scenario and have presented as original material out of Kenya, are nothing but a compiliation of material taken from a number of biographies written by US authors.
Every time you see quotation marks used, it indicates text taken from sourced material. Heck, the ‘authors’ of the pieces you refer to have had the decency to credit where the material came from.
You could save yourself the round trip to Kenya, by going straight to the book reviews. And then you could tell us that every word of ‘Dreams’ and and any number of biographies on the subject at issue, is gospel.
Hey, but you know that wouldn’t work. So you cherry-pick the gossip, present it as factual, supply a few links that don’t work, and presto! You really think that’s how it works?
Seize, I’m surprised at you. Just how diligently have you examined these ‘documents’? Care to put your stamp of GENUINE on all those biographies?
