Subsequently (4/9/24), Doe's attorney failed to properly redact Doe's full name *dozens of times*

In her book, Meg Basham claims that Johnny Hunt’s alleged victim was accidentally outed by her own attorney in an unredacted court file.
The woman’s attorneys now say it was Hunt’s attorney, not them, who filed the document.

So far, this has been the go-to "they think you're stupid" modus operandi of the left in trying to discredit Meg Basham's book:
1. Define *real* journalism as zero analysis, only literal quotations.
2. Nitpick every non-controversial conclusion on silly technicalities.
Example:
@megbasham
@dennisdjackson
If you want to be accurate, say, “Don’t read this review of my book because it’s being published by a conservative news outlet that included David French on its launch team.”
Which, of course, would be guilt by association. Also a mark of bad journalism.

The church desperately needs better thinkers. It is infested with men who can't tell the difference between the church and secular society, the messenger vs the message, or biblical patriarchy vs beefheaded misogyny.
In other words, they think more like children than men.
Am I the only one really confused by Meg Basham’s popularity? We have many complementarians following her & putting her in the spotlight - on matters of ecclesiastical import. I don’t understand why we’re objecting to female leaders in churches while propping up Basham.
