I have also seen Rev. Joseph interviewed live on a TV news program and
he said the same things reported by UPI, so UPI (and its subscribers)
quoted him correctly. Dismissing his powerful testimony by slamming a
news organization he has no connection with and probably dislikes
himself is an evasive non sequitor.
