Who killed fair reporting?
Article Abstract:
Michael Tracey is a journalism professor at Colorado University, Boulder, who has made a TV documentary on the media treatment of the case of JonBenet Ramsey, a six-year-old girl who was murdered. The parents of JoBenet, John and Patsy Ramsey, were treated unfairly by the media, Tracey believes, and he criticizes the press for being voyeuristic, unfair, exploitative, and denying the assumption that JonBenet's parents were innocent. Tracey has a background in media studies and is from Britain.

Age-old battle continues with true believers
Article Abstract:
Very mixed views are still being expressed about the links between science and religion. Some researchers continue to seek to associate their findings with events described in the Bible, but others believe that the available evidence does not back up Biblical accounts. This issue is particularly controversial in the US, where many people feel that evolution is contrary to Christian beliefs. The most recent area of conflict has been cosmology.
