Majority of content from single editor
editA very large proporation of this article has been contributed by KamTarwin, an editor who has only ever edited this page and no others. So naturally there is a risk here of bias and advocacy. I've read through the policy on Single-purpose accounts, so I'm going to assume good faith. I just wanted to flag this up. Seaweed (talk) 12:17, 6 September 2013 (UTC)
Producer of Peter Snow "Falklands" items on Newsnight
editIn the "Early BBC Career" section there is the following text:Whilst working on Newsnight during the Falklands War she produced many of Peter Snow’s reports illustrating military clashes between the British and Argentine forces using a sand-box. These included his broadcast on 2nd May 1982 in which he referred to the unreliability of information provided by the Argentine regime of the day. He then struck a sceptical note about a report from the Ministry of Defence. Snow’s choice of words was raised in the House of Commons at Prime Minister’s Questions and a few days later prompted a leader column in the Sun newspaper saying “there are traitors in our midst”.[1][2] The BBC Chairman, George Howard went on the record to defend the BBC's "reputation for telling the truth".[3][4]
The problem is that none of those references actually mention Jana Bennett. I've tried searching for other references, but can't find anything. It's a remarkably specific example, so there must be something in it, but it's not verifiable, so I'm going to remove it. Seaweed (talk) 20:26, 6 September 2013 (UTC)
