In his Nov. 8 WorldNetDaily column, Joseph Farah laments the purchase of Christian book publisher Thomas Nelson by publishing giant HarperColllins, claiming that the result will be “more pseudo-Christian, pop theology like “The Purpose-Driven Life” and less of the prophetic, hard truth the world has been dependent upon genuine Christians to produce.” Farah also self-aggrandizingly touts “independent efforts like my own with WND and WND Books.”
Farah failed to mention, however, his personal and business stake in this story: Thomas Nelson was WND’s original partner in the WND books venture in 2002.
Farah goes on to lament that “too many Christian businessmen are more interested in making a fast buck than in spreading the good news.” So what’s motivating WND to do things like defend an online stalker? It certainly doesn’t involve “spreading the good news”; the stalker’s victim would likely beg to differ.
