Prof Stephen Bloom Talks About Crazy Religious Iowa Folks

Oh boy I missed this controversy. Get Religion has a good post that also looks at some of the criticism the piece got from folks that critique journalism. Be see to click on the HILARIOUS IowaHawk parody of the Bloom piece. See Iowa’s ‘uneducated Jesus freaks’.

One thing caught my eye too. Is it really that inappropriate journalism wise to have a small blurb in the corner of a front page saying "He is Risen" on Easter Sunday. It seems basically a recognition and a shout out to the culture of the most important day of the year for many of them. I am not sure I would be offended if I was in a major area where many non Christians reside and their Holy Day got a small bit of recognition
