Talk:The Rage and The Pride

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

It would be non-POV to simply quote, say, the most-criticized passage just to let reasonable folks know what kind of islamophobic moron wrote this book. -Arvid Båve

Oh, and I deleted the phrase "according to Fallaci's critics" in the obviously pleonastic sentence "The book has received criticism for being, according to Fallaci's critics, islamophobic." The reader can conclude for herself that the criticism comes from her critics, duh! -Arvid Båve

This reads like advertising copy for the book. It is obviously not written from a neutral point of view and contains offensive language (e.g. "yoke of Islam"). GagHalfrunt 23:43, 30 May 2005 (UTC)

its a description of the book , not a pov.--Ghruheg 04:40, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)
ok took out the controversial para in question.--Ghruheg 12:31, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Your description of the book expresses an opinion about it instead of describing it in factual terms. It still says "compelling and brutally honest", which is a value judgment, not a statement of fact, and as such contrary to the Neutral Point of View principle. --GagHalfrunt 13:11, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)
