Kate's Commonplace Blog: Check out Frykholm's Blog Post about Religion in t...: "While on Amy Frykholm's website (the author of our reading for monday), I came across a blog posting she had written about religion's role
Kate, I'm delighted that you made the effort to read Amy's blog and that you found it useful enough to pass along via your own blog. While an informed citizen and careful consumer of media (of all types including popular, broadcast, scholarly, etc.) is always attentive to authors' agenda and the nuances of word, alert caution is especially important with regard to the complex and often controversial matter of religion. When Amy is with us, I hope you will ask her to say more about this with reference to the USA as well as to Egypt! DeAne

Sure! I thought it was a neat connection between our discussions of Egypt, Tan and religion. And it also gave me a lot more insight into the media's definition of it.
