Talk:Philip Weiss

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] American Conservative magazine

The article states: "Philip Weiss is an investigative journalist who writes for...The American Conservative...." To "write for" wouldn't that inply that he writes for the publication regularly or has written several articles for that publication? As far as I can tell, Weiss has written only two articles for The American Conservative. And because the word "conservative" is in the title, the reader may get the impression Weiss is a conservative (which he is not). Your average wikipedia reader will know right away where The American Conservative stands, unlike, say, The Nation which, unless you are familiar with the magazine, is not identifiable as left-wing just by looking at the name as it does not have the word "left" (or something similar) in the title. The link to his article for TAC should remain but that he "writes for" the magazine should be removed.Rlh 1984 01:22, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
