Talk:Fresh Air

message: I caught bits and pieces of the interview and would love to see a link to the broadcast where I could listen to the whole show at my convenience.

thread_title: How about a comment for Today's show with Jimmy Wales April 19th 2007

message: The link http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=1137499 is a link to a web page that explains that the audio is unavailable.  And it's a citation for the "fact" that NPR says it is unavailable, otherwise it would be cited on the previous sentence.  I'm relatively new to active Wikipedia editing, but I think it makes sense for the citation not to be listed as an "audio" ".MP3" file when it isn't and never was.  Make sense?

replies: text: it's listed as and .MP3 because it was available there for quite some time after it's original airing. for what it's worth--and i know it's not much--i heard it there myself a while back. i know i have it somewhere...i'll post it somewhere when i find it. either way, the reference is appropriate because it substantiates all the facts and whos the whats the wheres and the whens. --emerson7 | Talk 03:59, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text:  Should we mark the link as "inactive" then?  (Once someone responds to Ocolon and tell us how, that is. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Citing_sources#Marking_links_as_inactive) Or remove the mention of "Gene Simmons refused permission, etc, etc," and just post a link to an unauthorized transcript of the interview?

thread_title:  Citation for Gene Simmons' permission 

message: How is there only one noteworthy interview?  Fresh Air has done several noteworthy interviews.  Yall interviewed Tracy Morgan for god's sake.  Was this article written by a Kiss fanboy?  Get with the program.  Give yourselves some credit.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.98.33.211 (talk) 03:01, 19 May 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  WTF, guys 

message: I'm thinking that the links to the shows with Bill O'Reilly and Lynne Cheney are not appropriate because while sensational and interesting, probably worth mentioning in a larger article, they are outliers in the distribution of typical shows; to have a short article with just these two shows linked to I think misrepresents the show to those coming to wikipedia to learn about the show. What do you think? Perhaps we ought to link to different, more representational shows or none at all.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.236.35.66 (talk) 22:47, 10 March 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Link Selection 

message: "Fresh Air" is often derided as "Left Air" because of the show's political bias, but there's no mention of any controversy at all.  "Fresh Air" contains a lot of opinion -- the very sort of thing for which Juan Williams was fired in October 2010.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.44.149.170 (talk) 03:23, 22 October 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Any citations from reliable sources to support this claim? Also, Fresh Air is not NPR editorial content but rather distributed by NPR, so it's not clear what Williams would have to do with this even if citations were found.  Frank    talk  15:06, 25 October 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  The Article Ignores the Criticism of "Fresh Air" as "Left Air" 

message: When pressing news requires, the show has gone live, such as during the Soviet coup attempt of 1991, and in the aftermath of the Boston Marathon bombings on April 19, 2013.
Can someone find a reference for this statement please? — Hugh 01:23, 6 September 2017 (UTC)
