I then noticed that the man who described the town as being a cesspit just happened to be an experienced preacher etc. which makes me suspect that he wasn't giving an unbiased opinion.

From the article -

Quote:Again, we have the report of Braden, who probably spun it a little, but still…

If the article writer, who is obviously religious, suspects that Braden wasn't being entirely truthful I think I'm entitled to think that Braden wasn't unbiased.
I agree that Baden was biased. However, the article also notes that Braden was sued for slander twice and prevailed both times, so his writings were apparently reasonably accurate despite his bias.
