Summary Note
In this short telephone conversation, Temple press relations spokesman Mike Prokes discusses an upcoming article with the religion writer for the Oakland Tribune, going over some of the points he hopes the reporter will mention, and which aspects he hopes the reporter will downplay, such as the healings or anything else “that takes the glory from God and Christ.” The two are professional but cordial with each other. Full summary of the recording available at Alternative Considerations of Jonestown website, along with the tape transcript.
