New O'Reilly Children's Book

[wsanto]

I've spent the day canvassing the internet for a list of the factual errors in Killing Lincoln. Most of the articles are from the left blogosphere and are celebrating O'Reilly as inept and the book as a laughable pile of trash. They site the National Parks Service employee that banned the book at Ford's Theater and Ed Steer's review in North and South. I've been unable to read Mr. Steer's review or find another substantial list of inaccuracies. The lists that I have found seems mostly trivial and site inaccuracies that seem mostly irrelevant to the major elements of the story.

Now I am not a historian so I have a much, much lower standard. But I have read Steers and Kauffman and others; and, it seems to me, that they present the assassination with different assumptions and theories (usually presented by them as fact) from the evidence and facts that they had to work with. There seems to be a lot of disagreement between these esteemed historians and between the other members of this Board concerning these events. As a layman, i am wondering why O'Reilly's interpretation of these events is any less relevant. Is it because he is a conservative commentator on a conservative news channel? Could any of this criticism be exaggerated by the political bias of the critics?
