Added link to Michael Wolff.
editI am building up pages on Wolff and his book Burn Rate. Please come add content (not nasty textboxes) to help make them better articles. —Preceding unsigned comment added by TCO (talk • contribs) 21:13, 19 October 2008 (UTC)
Overly promotional tone
editThe article is written like a promotional brochure and lacks references.--Yammie2009 (talk) 01:44, 15 March 2015 (UTC)
Deleting unsourced material
editAfter 11 months of waiting for citations, it is time to delete the material which was written like an advertisement. If anybody has reliable citations, please add the material again. I might rewrite some information as I have time, if sources are available.--Yammie2009 (talk) 00:49, 18 April 2015 (UTC)
Conflict of Interest
editI believe one of the editors is a public relations employee of Newser. The site statistics have been exaggerated without context. I will review edits as time permits and will add a COI template to the talk page and user talk page.Yammie2009 (talk) 06:06, 17 October 2016 (UTC)
Openly biased and subject to stating questionable "facts""
editSo, a good friend of mine often shared Newser's articles on social media. On more than one occasion, the articles have made questionable statements they cite as facts that, upon researching, I have been unable to find credible sources for. Look, I don't care where anyone falls on the political spectrum-but, when we publicly make outlandish statements and insist they are facts without providing adequate and credible sources to back them up, we make ourselves as well as any and all groups we belong to look ridiculous. I wish the media and most Americans realized this. 162.221.219.43 (talk) 14:20, 31 March 2022 (UTC)
