Weirsdo Explores Further

In response to the previous post regarding National History Day projects sympathetic to Nazis and the concept of "balanced coverage" as explicated by Masterymistery, the Cheesemeister wrote, "Both of you have valid arguments and this is a great illustration of balanced discussion and debate. It is something we see far too little of these days."
Indeed, Cheesemeister, I'm not sure it's even a debate. I agree that the idiots responsible for rewarding these projects were probably swayed by the concept of "balanced coverage," and I think M. M. and I may agree that allowing Nazis to have their say and investigating their point of view might be valuable, though I can't tell for sure. I also think we would agree that, as in the instances of balanced coverage M. M. adduces, a full understanding of the issue should not lead to the conclusion that such fringe views have an equal claim to validity!
