The SBC President’s plagiarism scandal is now attracting mainstream press coverage as Newsweek published a story on it.

The focus of the Newsweek article was the appearance of a coverup as Ed Litton took down or hid over 140 sermons.

According to the report, “Newsweek found more than 140 videos were either unavailable or hidden across several playlists on the Redemption Church YouTube page as of Monday morning.”
