It is a testament to the times that someone can be subject to a NYT hit job and be able to defend themselves so easily.
In the country I live in, it is usual (I believe voluntarily mandatory) for a newspapers to publish a response by the subject of an article.
[Charles Murray] in particular has some very sophisticated theories about class and culture. But he shares my skepticism that the 55 year old Kentucky trucker can be taught to code, and I don’t think he’s too sanguine about the trucker’s kids either. His solution is a basic income guarantee, and I guess that’s mine too.
In one post, he aligned himself with Charles Murray, who proposed a link between race and I.Q. in “The Bell Curve.” In another, he pointed out that Mr. Murray believes Black people “are genetically less intelligent than white people.”
