Its strength is that it studies the community's own reaction directly rather than critics' assumptions about that reaction. Its limit is that the full text sits behind a publisher paywall, so this entry cites its confirmed bibliographic details and its documented general finding, a range of Mormon reactions rather than a single uniform one, and does not claim to have read the full argument.FactsClaims Backed By This Source (12 claims)Comments (0)Reader Challenges (0 open reader challenges)FactsAssessmentReliability TierWell-attested1Tier one: a peer reviewed article in the academic journal Comedy Studies, Taylor and Francis, studying practicing Latter-day Saints' own reactions to the musical directly rather than critics' assumptions about that reaction. Its limit is that the full text sits behind a publisher paywall, so this entry cites its confirmed bibliographic details and its documented general finding, a range of reactions rather than a single uniform one, without claiming to have read the full argument.NotesWell-attestedAuthor affiliation, Western Sydney University, School of Humanities and Communication Arts. Full text is paywalled; its title, author, journal, volume, issue and page range are corroborated across the publisher's own abstract page, Western Sydney University's research repository and two independent academic indices, so the citation is confirmed rather than read in full, and this entry treats it that way rather than upgrading it to something it is not.CitationAuthorWell-attestedAdrian HalePublisherWell-attestedComedy Studies (Taylor and Francis), Vol. 12, No. 2, pages 186 to 202Publication YearWell-attested2021URLWell-attestedhttps://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/2040610X.2021.1893469Source TypeWell-attestedpeer-reviewed articleClaims Backed By This Source (12 claims)This source backs 12 claims across the atlas.
