Perhaps you are referring to this part, quoted from your own post:
David L. Marcus has been a foreign correspondent and education reporter for U.S. News & World Report, the Boston Globe, Miami Herald, and Dallas Morning News, where he shared a Pulitzer Prize for a series of articles on violence against women around the world.[/list]

Yes! I knew he worked against violence against women.
--- End quote ---
Uh, no, not at all. He WROTE ABOUT IT. He did not "work against" it. He exploited its existence for a series of stories. You need a reading comprehension class.
But let's not let that distract from the disturbing 100% failure rate and 25% death rate Marcus uncovered at ASR, an Aspen program.

Yeah, too bad he promotes violence against children.

The common element of violence struck me as well. I would have chalked it up to a gravitation towards exploitative subject matter which always tends to generate high press copy, but perhaps Marcus does have a deep dark secret buried back in his youthful years...

Many writers are motivated by things that occurred in their past. It is very possible that he grew up in the midst of violence himself and therefore is gravitated towards it as a writer. That and the struggles that adolescents have with his books on the struggling teen industry and another about kids getting into college I believe.
It is interesting that his Pulitzer prize came from his writings about violence against women. I thought it would have been more war time related.

Yeah, you can't accept only part of the facts. If you are going to look at these kids' lives, you have to look at the other side of it as well. On one hand ASR claims lots of success, but the only "documentary" about the place (Marcus' book) reveals it's actually a huge failure.

And remember that Marcus is a paid consultant to ASR, which would blow any shred of objectivity out of the fucking water.
