Cvalda 14:24, 8 Dec 2004 (UTC) I don't think this person is important enough to be in Wikipedia. And second, I think the article is a bit biased to the left. Nothing serious, just a bit.

I think it's pretty neutral now. --Soldadito de Plomo 18:20, 20 Apr 2005 (UTC)

I don't think labelling newspapers or Mr. Losantos' ideology as "ultra-conservative" complies with NPOV standards.. I think keeping "liberal" would be best.

I disagree with his idealogy. Yes, Losantos defines himself as a liberal, but for an objective article, I think readers must know his right-wing politics ideology balanced with his liberalism. To mention his visceral rage against catalan nationalism will be important too.

I have corrected the image size to aboid pixelation.

Not to forget basque nationalism. Nacionalism is polemical stuff nowadays, even in Spain. byj 20:03, 2 August 2005 (UTC)

There are 3M people listening to his program every day. Whether you agree with him or not, this person is important enough to be in here.

[edit] Basque and Catalan Nationalism / Historical Revisionism

Both parties (the nationalists and the postion Jiménez Losantos defends) accuse the other of attempting to rewrite history. Whether we think one version is correct or not is beside the point. I clearly included in the statment the word alleged, which implies that the view that the nationalists are rewriting history to their convenience is the particular view of some people (including Jiménez Losantos) and that it is disputed by others. I hardly consider this to be POV. Claiming that the Basque and Catalan nationalists, as well as the Socialists, are rewriting history is in fact part of Jiménez Losantos' ideology.

Then again, I think we would agree that this is not too important an issue for now as this article is still lacking in many areas, particularly his biography. Therefore I won't insist on it. -- Mankawabi

[edit] Views, comments and opinions Reality and common sense

Spain has an identity problem which could condemn the oldest nation in Europe to a tragic end.
