TOLC's Media Reports about the London/Boston Church of Christ: TOLC maintains a list of links to articles about the London/Boston Church of Christ. Most are to UK-based newspapers, and unfortunately many of the articles printed in these papers are sensationalist to the extreme and do not do justice to the issues. Some are reasonably good, though, and even the sensationalist articles contain a few facts.
