The article focuses on misinterpretation of facts in the book reviews. In 1994, Christina Hoff Sommers accused The New York Times Book Review of unfairly assigning her attack on the women's movement "Who Stole Feminism?" Recently, same thing has happened with the Washington Post Book World which has published a review of David Brock's book "Blinded by the Right," by Bruce Bawer. Much of the book deals with skulduggery at the Scaife-finded magazine, American Spectator, for which Bawer was a movie critic for several years. But he didn't mention his connections in his review.
