Defending D’Arcy

Attorney Randol Schoenberg disputes Dvorkin’s criticisms: “You wrote “the original report did not, in my opinion, fully and accurately present all of the facts.” No doubt this is true of Mr. d’Arcy’s story — as it is true of each and every story aired on NPR. No 5-minute story “could fully and accurately present all the facts” of a historical case concerning events 65+ years ago, the litigation of which has lasted now for over seven years and generated no less than six court opinions concerning complex legal issues beyond the ken of even NPR’s above-average listeners. So your comment, while true, is hardly a criticism. Notably, you fail to mention any inaccuracies in the report. If there are any, they are certainly minor.”
