Must have been a slow news day. They must miss having bombs and knee cappings to report. Had anyone in the Albinist Fellowship or RNIB actually read the book? I remember some complaints about negative stereotyping in The Da Vinci Code, so I would have thought a positive portrayal in fiction would have been a good thing.
And here was I thinking censorship was a thing of the past. It's sad when people can mistake characterisation for discrimination. Would they prefer you desribe everyone as tall,dark and handsome or short, fair and average?

I hope they haven't been watching Big Brother...
