Talk:Richard Mellon Scaife/Comments

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This entry on Richard Mellon Scaife easily should prove one of the worst examples of "biography" found in Wikipedia.

Substantial/major editing is needed.

Most material for a complete article needs to be added, and it certainly exists, in fair, objective prose, in the public domain.

This article isn't even good enough for a cleanup tag: it still needs to be built. It suffers from non-POV descriptions and "facts" throughout.

Some errors are so blatant as to be laughable. For example, several "editors" have taken a verbal slap at Marisol Bello, a reporter for the Detroit Free-Press. The postings are so devoid of fact that they refer to Bello as a man ("Marisol" is a common, female name) and claim her "boss" is Scaife.

In fact, her "boss" is the Detroit Free-Press.

The article itself in nearly complete devoid of fact throughout, relying mostly on Google searches of partisan websites and very lightly on respected publications such as the Washington Post or Newsweek.

Wiki's "bosses" should get this right. There's probably enough here that's libelous or simply false to trigger an immediate rewrite. Lionel of Pittsburgh 23:06, 5 September 2006 (UTC)Lionel of Pittsburgh
