Talk:Christin Cooper

Semi-protected edit request on 17 February 2014

During the 2014 NBC Winter Olympics coverage, Cooper became infamous for her badgering of US Olympic skier and bronze medalist Bode Miller in a successful attempt to reduce him to tears over the death of Bode's brother. 98.22.213.160 (talk) 03:46, 17 February 2014 (UTC)

For NPOV purposes, the wording on that part of the article should be changed from "badgered" to "repeatedly questioned." I think it's neutral to say "until he broke down in tears," though, because he did, in fact, break down in tears. So the full sentence would read, "... controversy when she repeatedly questioned him about his late brother until he broke down in tears." -- 98.223.194.188 (talk) 06:15, 17 February 2014 (UTC)

Bode Miller Controversy

To clarify what I said in the comments when I replaced the blanked out text: It is clearly not a case of WP:UNDUE, because both criticisms and defenses of her are sourced to "reliable sources," including the New York Times and Cooper's own network. It may arguably be a case of WP:BALASPS, but I don't think a single six-line paragraph on an incident which got an entire NYT article about her and references to her on almost every major TV news network for the first time in 30 years is an inappropriate weight. It's not the defining moment of her life, either, but if the problem is six lines is a disproportionate length to all the other information, fill in the rest of the article with more significant information. Don't remove perfectly valid, weighted and sourced information that would be perfectly fine if her article were longer because Wikipedia was around in 1984 at the peak of her fame. -- JCaesar (talk) 04:11, 4 March 2014 (UTC)
