Did anyone of you come across a mention of the OLB in the (mainstream) media, where the manuscript wasn't ridiculed? Does it ever get a fair press? Not much, as it seems.
Today I found an article on the 'Nordictimes.com', from half a year ago, that seems to give some honest information about the OLB. https://nordictimes.com/culture/the-eni ... he-fryans/
Even Jan Ott got mentioned, and credits to Asha Logos, a Youtube channel worth to watch, with some 'good' (as it seems for me so far, I mostly agree with it) videos about the OLB.
The Nordic Times claims to be 'truly independent', me as a sceptic says, who knows.. Looking at their other articles ('most read') I doubt it though.. I don't believe in independent journalism since I got tired of the Groene Amsterdammer more than ten years ago.
Positive mentions of the OLB in the media,.. usually the media rejects the (authenticity of) the OLB..

Apologies for the late reply, Friedrich.

Nordictimes did not seem mainstream to me.
Nor is De Andere Krant that published a long article dec. '24.
It has been very long* since a neutral or positive article appeared anywhere in the main stream.
Prof. Frits van Oostrom in his De Reynaert (2023) was strikingly neutral when referring to OL as “the mysterious Oera Linda Book”, without adding the usual disparaging remark. (Longer quote here.)
*LC 1994 was somewhat neutral, about a radio documentary.
