... when it is appointed to represent the overall reputation of a man with Mr. Medina - is, of course, a scandal. Because in terms of professional history, what he writes - it is pure fraud. We are in the "Notes of the Fatherland" in 2009 criticized in great detail his first volume of "Myths" - why is this not a story, and not a scientific essay. In addition, when writing his dissertation, Mr. Medina was convicted of plagiarism, that in general crime. This detail was written six months ago. And the fact that a person with such a reputation is appointed by the Minister of Culture - is a sign of an intelligent community around.

And in his apologetics Medina admits that a good historian should not be allowed, that is, concealment of facts and, conversely, disproportionate swelling of the other.

Only labrador Koni is not such damage, in particular, public historical consciousness, which are the work of Mr. Medina. That's all.
