This looks like a straw man argument. What apologist for Skinner would 
say this given that he wrote an article called "Baby in a Box"? The 
question here is, has Slater engaged in responsible journalism? It 
seems to stretch credulity that Slater would interview Skinner's other 
daughter, Julie Vargas, and still get this story so wrong.
