:I absolutely LOVE the Scopes Trials! I found them extremely interesting and admired how William Jennings Bryan defended what he stood for with so much pep, and never gave up. I loved how he allowed himself to be questions, which shows he was confident and knew what he was standing for was the right thing because he wasn't afraid to be put under scrutiny. His answers were honest, and he used good tactics.  (Deborah B.)

:The Scopes Trial was one of the first times in American history that the reporting was only from one side.  The account of H.L. Mencken, who was an atheist and evolutionist, misinformed the American public and the world of the true result: Bryan and creationism had won; Darrow and evolutionism had lost.  Throughout all of American history up till about sixty years ago, issues were confronted in the media from both sides.  (Duncan B.)
