Branham's meetings were regularly attended by journalists, who wrote articles about the miracles reported by Branham and his team throughout the years of his revivals, and claimed patients were cured of various ailments after attending prayer meetings with Branham. "Durban Sunday Tribune" and "The Natal Mercury" reported wheelchair-bound people rising and walking. "Winnipeg Free Press" reported a girl was cured of deafness. "El Paso Herald-Post" reported hundreds of attendees at one meeting seeking divine healing. "Logansport Press" reported a father's claim that his four-year-old son, who suffered from a "rare brain ailment", benefited from Branham's meetings. Despite such occasional glowing reports, most of the press coverage Branham received was negative.
