Thank you all for the lively feedback on Sunday's interview with Pastor Paula White. Considering the size of her congregation and the popularity of her books, tapes and seminars I was surprised more people didn't come to her defense. If you missed the interview, we will run it against next Sunday morning at 11:00 AM on Flashpoint. or you can watch it r
ight here, right now.
Just 8 hours after Flashpoint aired, it was fascinating to watch
Byron Pitts interview with Houston based televangelist, Joel Osteen on 60 Minutes . Pitts' questioning covered much of the same ground as the Paula White interview, but said almost nothing about how he spends the millions of dollars in tithes and offerings. The resulting portrait of Osteen was actually quite flattering.
I'm burning some vacation time this week and will try to keep away from the keyboard as much as possible. My colleagues at ABC Action News may be posting some items, so check in once in a while. Catch you next week.
