The Get Religion blog reviews how the press covered the Lambeth Conference and finds much to correct.
There is much to read about the just concluded conference (including Bishop Howe's interesting letters). But in many ways, one of the most cool-headed articles I came across was not by a religion reporter at all. He is an English economist and contributes commentary to various English newspapers and television programs. Andrew Lillico has a doctorate in Game Theory, an MSc in Economics, an MA in Philosophy, and his first degree was in Philosophy and Economics. He lives in Hertfordshire, has five children, and is a committed Anglican Christian.
Given his studies in Game Theory, I found his predictions of what will happen next to the Church of England (and the effect on the Anglican Communion) very interesting. He even has an opinion on which part of the Church the Queen of England would ultimately favor!
Finally, Josh Hylden is cautiously optimistic but wants to wait a bit before deciding what it all will mean.
