[edit] Voice work

Someone should mention his massive amount of voice over work for cartoons. He was "Granny Goodness"!

[edit] Deletions

Could you stop deleting this? This is a notable and verifiable view she has, why are you deleting her views, and her apearance on a notable tv show? --Striver 06:17, 29 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Edited

Why are the Mumia references edited. They happen to be true. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 146.145.92.27 (talk) 21:28, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

Because (a.) they are uncited, and (b.) as phrased, they repeatedly and clearly represent a point of view and are intended to influence opinion and as such are inappropriate for WP. If you wish to submit UNBIASED information, then word it so that your bias doesn't show and provide a citation. Until then, these repeated attempts to slant opinion one way or the other will be deleted. Monkeyzpop 06:09, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Ed Asner - local relatives

Ron Gold - cousin Labe Asner - brother ?

[edit] Yitzak/Yitzhak?

This says his birth name is Yitzak Eddie Asner. Googling, I find there are many websites that support his birth name as either Yitzak or Yitzhak. Others, however, such as IMDB, say nothing about the Yitzak name, and say that Ed is not short for Eddie but for Edward. What's the truth? -- JackofOz 00:28, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Feuds with Charlton Heston

Heard Charlton Heston died today and was reading a little bit about him and I noticed it mentioned many conflicting feuds with Ed Asner regarding his political views, thought it would be a good idea to maybe add something about it as I came here to find a little more information on it.--Papajohnin (talk) 08:08, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
