It is blatantly in violation of WP:NPOV and WP:RS.  The bit you cite: "Reliable non-academic sources may also be used in articles about scholarly issues, particularly material from high-quality mainstream publications" argues my point and not yours.  Please stop being obstinately against this.  If you're going to strut about braying like a jackass in accusing somebody of not reading something he cites, you had better read it before you stick it in his face.  I caught you in dishonesty once again.  I get no enjoyment from that.
