Foxy,
I liked the bit about Pascoe falling short of intellectual rigour at times.

Like selectively quoting and cutting out the bits of those quotes that don’t suit him.

Foxy,

One does not need to do in-depth research to see that Pascoe is a charlatan.

As for you: "there is none so blind as those that will not see."

Is Mise,

The Age tells us that

"though we can't change the past,
we can still learn from it, and make a better future.
Bruce Pascoe, Peter Sutton, and Keryn Walshe may not be
in agreement, but they are doing important work.

The Age "Keep culture wars out of Dark Emu debate,"
Editorial. 15/6 - points out and is right to urge that
the debate not be politicised, but instead lead us closer
to the truth."

We're told that "criticism is valid, but value remains in
Pascoe's work."

Shadow Minister,

The only thing worse then being blind
is having sight, but no vision.

Read last night that Sutton and Walshe are both lefties; Sutton even refusing to discuss his findings with Piers Ackerman because he thought that a conservative writer might be harmful to his findings.

The usual suspects can't use their usual disparaging of the right in this case. Criticism of Pascoe's fantasy is not political.

Foxy,

your statement:

"Bruce Pascoe, Peter Sutton, and Keryn Walshe may not be
in agreement." is a huge understatement.

Walshe and Sutton essentially called him a fraud and a liar.
