Unearthed (publication)
- ... that undercover journalists at the Greenpeace publication Unearthed tricked an ExxonMobil lobbyist into revealing the company's agenda by posing as job recruiters? Source: [1]
- Reviewed: Template:Did you know nominations/MetLife Building
- Comment: This has an element of newsworthiness (the article mentioned was published only a few days ago), so if possible it'd be neat to see it appear while still timely. No worries if not, though.

- As website already in infobox suggest deleting external links section and bringing back up to size by writing more on ethics - also source mentions recruits from Times and BBC. Hope to continue review tomorrow. Chidgk1 (talk) 15:11, 7 July 2021 (UTC)
- Checked length, newness, copyvio all ok
- I pondered the hook as "agenda" is a bit vague but I cannot figure out how to improve it or a better one. Can you or anyone suggest any hook improvement? If not that one will do - it is just a feeling I have that there must be a stronger version lurking.Chidgk1 (talk) 06:01, 8 July 2021 (UTC)
- Not essential for dyk but I would be interested in a few more words on the ethics pros and cons.
- Not essential for dyk but perhaps mention similar publication in a "see also".
- Not essential for dyk but more could be added in infobox e.g. staff number, language(s)
- Not essential for dyk but a little more background could be added from Washington Post about US politics re carbon tax - perhaps linking to Politics of climate change or Climate change policy of the United States
- type of CC licence could be wikilinked
Anyway I approve it as it is. Thanks for adding to the sum of human knowledge. Chidgk1 (talk) 06:22, 8 July 2021 (UTC)
