From the Google News search if you narrow it by adding Oregon to the search, you get three items: one appears like a good source (though its behind a pay wall), one is a trivial mention of this group, and the third is an editorial, so no notability through that alone. A search through the archives of ''The Oregonian'', the regional big paper in the area with archives back to mid-1987, gives only two articles, with one being trivial and the other slightly more than trivial. The ''Willamette Week'' and the ''Portland Tribune'' have zero articles. In fact its a bit odd that the really left-leaning ''Willamette Week'' has nothing, but in some ways that is telling when considering the notability of the group. The WW covers http://www.google.com/custom?hl=en&safe=off&client=pub-3254857045056288&cof=FORID%3A1%3BGL%3A1%3BS%3Ahttp%3A%2F%2Fwweek.com%2F%3BL%3Ahttp%3A%2F%2Fwweek.com%2FimagesV2%2Flogo.gif%3BLH%3A40%3BLW%3A261%3BLBGC%3AFFFFFF%3BLP%3A1%3BT%3A%23333333%3BLC%3A%23003366%3BGALT%3A%23003366%3BGFNT%3A%230000ff%3BGIMP%3A%230000ff%3B&domains=wweek.com&ie=ISO-8859-1&oe=ISO-8859-1&q=%22Oregon+Citizens+Alliance%22&btnG=Search&sitesearch=wweek.com groups like this in general, so the fact that they haven't bothered to cover this group seals the deal. As to the existing sources in the article, it is trivial coverage in the SPL. The ADL is trickier, but I just can't accept it as a RS due to their stated POV at the top of the article pages, which makes you have to question their motives and thus reliability on this topic. As in you wouldn't exactly take an article from the Democratic Party's newsletter to be particularly reliable about say the Republican Party, despite strong editorial oversight. I know the are a highly regarded organization that does good work, but they are not exactly a neutral media outlet. It just doesn't fit in with the spirit of RS. So, simply not enough in-depth coverage in RS at this time, but if they step up their activities then maybe they will get |noticed
