Pagans in the Times May 16, 2007
Posted by newwitch in news.trackback
Today’s New York Times features an article on Wicca in the Virginia suburbs. While the piece (which focuses on “broom closet Pagans”) is generally respectful, I wonder why the author felt it necessary to consult an expert on historical Christianity and a sociologist for information about Wicca.
It’s not that their information was bad - it was accurate and to the point - but were all your Pagan sources in the broom closet too? Chas Clifton, Judy Harrow and Margot Adler all have a web presence; surely their thoughts on the topic would have been interesting to Times readers. If you want to get an authoritative cite for your article on Wicca, perhaps you could use Wiccan authorities, no?
