[*The New Yorker* has a good article about TDVC and Sony](http://www.newyorker.com/printables/fact/060522fa%5Ffact?ref=thedailyeudemon.com). *The New Yorker* is one of the most relentlessly-secularist publications in America, so it's significant when you see nuggets like these in its pages:

> Dan Brown's best-seller was now under steady assault, its theology attacked by a series of books bearing titles such as “De-Coding Da Vinci” and “Breaking the Da Vinci Code,” which deconstructed Brown's scholarship and convincingly refuted many of his key claims (such as Christ's divinity having been decided by the fourth-century Council of Nicaea, on a close vote). Brown's art scholarship was also broadly assailed. The Times published a critique of “The Da Vinci Code” by the Renaissance art expert Bruce Boucher, who gently mocked Brown's “shaky” grasp of the historical Leonardo (pointing out, for example, that the artist's name was not “Da Vinci”). Boucher concluded his article by suggesting that “The Da Vinci Code” might make a better opera than a film, offering the old advice that “if it's too silly to be said, it can always be sung.”

The article as a whole is highly interesting and worth reading (or at least skimming).
