One half of the original article, removed:

before becoming a reporter in Toronto, Ontario at the Toronto Daily Star where he met Morley Callaghan.

Someone can Google on Toronto Daily Star, and Morley Callaghan and then write a proper entry, which had no business floating around in a stub on a paper in Kansas City. The article should include something about their boxing match. Ortolan88

Don't mess with the KC Star, I was reading the thing for three month when I was there ;-) --Magnus Manske


The entire bit of gobbledegook about this paper being an organ for the Republicans should be removed. The line about the paper only giving four lines when it won the Pulitzer Prize because of something about Republicans makes absolutely no sense. The paper admittedly leans sharply to the left now for what it is worth. Oddly, the original author of the page made no mention of that.137.1.212.12 09:03, 26 February 2006 (UTC) The GOP and Roy Roberts info is straight from the Star's own website history (which is now in cache)Americasroof 23:24, 20 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Jason Whitlock

why does the Jason Whitlock article redirect to here?


[edit] Joe McDuff

Who is Joe McDuff? I've never heard of him and can't find any info.--JustAGal 20:54, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

Joe McDuff was a sports columnist and was on the MacNeil/Lehrer Report (I think). I'm surprised I can't find any reference via Google in its various web, newspaperarchive or print variations. If properly written an article could be written. I'm always annoyed when folks post those red links and then don't follow through. Americasroof 03:01, 5 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Many papers have comics

Removed list of comics run in the paper, all syndicated, none originated here. Ortolan88 17:40, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
