The Sunday Style section, July 10, of the Washington Post ran a nearly balanced feature on a former convict in D.C. who is straightening his life out through hard work, self-discipline, and ... Christian faith (including regular church attendance). See story: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2005/07/09/AR2005070901447.html While the feature does throw in many of the liberal nostrums about crime in D.C., etc., it does not shy away from the religious angle and the self-reliance angle. This provided some balance to a topic that the Post usually throws into the liberal fix-it box.
Wash. Post story on crime/rehabilitation in D.C. talks about religion, self-discipline
