Author’s Iowa parents contest critics over Charles Murray profile
Frances and Alan Murray of Newton defend their son Charles Murray amid a New York Times piece by Jason De Parle. They dispute the portrayal of Murray as squeamish about his father’s reporting and question the emphasis on controversial IQ debates. The Murrays note Murray’s Aspen trip included a first class upgrade for the reporter and insist the book’s analysis on intelligence differences is misrepresented by critics. The family also cites Sowell’s praise and laments media focus on sensational aspects rather than evidence.
