Story Notable and Newsworthy So Run It This story has been in the news for several days now in addition to the earlier exposure last year and as of today it is being commented on by many reliable source newspapers which are also reporting that the Los Angeles Times which had previously spiked the story is now running it itself a notable event So why is Wikipedia burying the story It is notable It is being reported by many news sources Is this a deliberate cover up or is it a sincere attempt to safeguard the legitimacy of Wikipedia by ignoring the story due to a misunderstanding of why The National Enquirer is generally considered not a reliable source If the latter let me clarify for those who are knee jerk reacting to the bad reputation of the National Enquierer The National Enquierer s reliability problem rests upon their use of anonymous sources but anonymous sources are nowhere to be found in this particular story for the simple reason that the National Enquierer s own reporters and a hotel security guard who has gone on record are the witnesses to the event and they are fully named in the story and in subsequent stories Furthermore there is now news of the reporters filing an incident report with the police due to the way security was handled during their attempts to interview Mr Edwards which moves things to a new level of notability Note this headline from FOXNews Guard Confirms Late Night Hotel Encounter and interanlly to that article please find this Beverly Hills Police Sgt Michael Publicker meanwhile confirmed Friday that an incident report was filed with the department by two of the tabloid s reporters So the story has moved beyond the boundaries of tabloid only reportage and is now embedded in stories published by other more reiable media outets and an account of the incident is also on file with the Beverly Hills Police Department So run it already So run the story already
