Well the site pulled the full essay, no idea if it's still showing up via my link. But yeah, basically there's no context that saves it. Also he complained about Save the Last Dance and O being pro-race-mixing. I think he also hates Julia Stiles.

13/15 here. I missed the Great Awakening and Pakistan questions.

The Times ran a similar article, but their sample quiz (which I aced) had only six questions.
