Talk:James R. Schlesinger

message: this should be mentioned:
"The documents -- the so-called "family jewels" -- are part of official investigations and reforms instituted in 1973 on the order of then CIA chief James Schlesinger, after he discovered illegal activities had been ongoing since the 1950s." - Yahoo news (AFP), 22 June 2007 http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20070621/pl_afp/usintelligencecia_070621224826

thread_title:  family jewels 

message: I've removed the following sentence from the lede because it violates WP:BLP (among other policies). 
:Ford eventually dismissed Schlesinger for his "aloof, frequently arrogant manner."
Another problem is that the sentence is ambiguous: did President Ford use the quoted phrase, or did someone else use it in discussing Ford's dismissal of Schlesinger?
If someone can find a reliable source for these words, we can put an improved version of the sentence back. If not, we need to decide whether the event deserves a mention in the lede. (I have no opinion on that question.) CWC 09:13, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Unsourced quotation 

message: "Schlesinger is also aware of the peak oil issue and supports it."  What is "it" that he supports?  Peak oil?  The issue?  The methodology for forecasting/estimating the date of peak oil production?  Mulp (talk) 23:44, 24 May 2009 (UTC)

message: Would an interview with transcript with James Schlesinger from 1987 be useful here as an external link? Focus of conversation is nuclear weapons policy. http://openvault.wgbh.org/catalog/V_8E2E3EDD88504E6E9C957CC233FDC95D (I have a conflict of interest; otherwise I would add it myself.)

message: *(Shadow, B Woodward, Simon & Schuster, 1999, pp. 30–31, 523.  Based on interviews with Ford, Schlesinger, and A. Haig).-- — Keithbob • Talk •  20:05, 18 April 2016 (UTC)
thread_title: Potential citation

message: Aside from the Watergate scandal box on the side of the article, there is no mention of Watergate within the article, nor is Schlesinger mentioned within the Watergate scandal article. If there is such a connection significant enough to warrant mention, should it be added? Or if not, shouldn't the Watergate scandal box be removed? —Salton Finneger (talk) 17:05, 24 May 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: This seems newly relevant given all of the comparisons between his actions in 1974 and those of Milley in the lame duck period of the Trump presidency. --Icowrich (talk) 21:26, 16 September 2021 (UTC)
