[edit] Removing "Mainstream exposure" section

This section contains factually inaccurate information. Obsession hasn't been broadcast on any TV network. It's only been shown in its entirety at pre-release screenings (I attended one). The footnote from the statement is merely a Q&A with the film's producer and director, and already included in the External Links section. I'll move the Google video link to that section as well.

[edit] Trailer on YouTube.

How is it a trailer on YouTube when it is linked to Google Video?

---

Because google bought youtube. It's the same thing now. It redirects you.

[edit] On the use of the term "notable counterterrorism figures"

Let me put this out there and then ask those more knowledgeable about Wikipedia guidelines to weigh in: some (possibly) most of the people listed as "notable counterterrorism figures" aren't really that. I think, but I guess it's subject to debate that some are notable for other, perhaps related things, but not counterterrorism (Dershowitz). And for people like Pipes, Emerson, and Darwish, a charitable description would be "controversial" a less charitable one would be "self-styled" and an even less charitable one would be "unreliable," "hyperbolic," and "demagogic." -128.139.226.34 14:25, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Propaganda Movie?

This film is being funded and supported at college campuses around the nation usually by either a Republican group or a pro-Israeli group. It's important to mention these facts because this movie does use a lot of propaganda tools such as appeal to fear and stereotypes (the cover alone shows us a barbaric looking desert man). The people supporting this fim speaks volumes about the purpose of this film and the intentions on the audience. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.99.124.228 (talk) 02:18, 22 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:ObsessionRadicalIslam.jpg

Image:ObsessionRadicalIslam.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
