Talk:Mara Liasson

message: Did she materialize or was she actually born? If so, where?
Oh wait, a single line about her birth is actually there-- but somehow encapsulates her entire upbringing. Perhaps she was just fast-forwaded from birth.

thread_title: Date problem

message: Equating a quote about White House press reporters with Liasson's personal philiosophy doesn't meet accurate source standards. A quote that claims, yet has no relation, to her personal philiosophy is not a legitimate source.

thread_title: "Philiosophy" Section Violates Wikipedia Standards

message: I heard it today and I couldn't believe it. Segal was so rude and intimidating to her on the air, she sounded terrified. It sounded like she is in trouble over there. It looks like they are running a purge over at NPR against moderates and center-Left people. How insane to treat them like "traitors". 
We live in a time when the extremes on both sides have the upper hand and the rest of us are caught in the middle. 
God help you these days if you are either center-Left or center-Right. I'm Center-Left and now I know that NPR hates me. I'm sure that Fox and the Tea Party hate me too. The middle is becoming a dangerous place to be.

text: Was it |this segment about the elections (the only thing I can find about a recent segment with Segal and Liasson)?  If so, there's nothing in the  transcript to indication rudeness on Segal's part so it may have been a matter of interpreting tone.  If that is the case, we'd have to wait until an outside source covered that angle.  Millahnna (talk) 13:01, 2 November 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: Abusive On-Air Treatment by Robert Segal at NPR, 11/1/2010

message: Is it permissible to include information about her summons of October, 2009? According to a source, Liasson was summoned in early October by NPR's executive editor for news, Dick Meyer, and the network's supervising senior Washington editor, Ron Elving. The NPR executives said they had concerns that Fox's programming had grown more partisan, and they asked Liasson to spend 30 days watching the network. She was, in effect, forced by the administration to stop appearing on Fox, in accordance with the President's war on Fox. Isn't this a noteworthy and historic precedent for a President? I know of no other journalist who has ever been forced in this manner.Lestrade (talk) 18:20, 15 December 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: The Summoning

message: This article, although short, reveals a bias against Liasson. This is a typical attack on people who are centrist in their politics. Whether Center-Left or Center-Right, people closer to the middle often get slammed by arrogant extremists of both the Right and the Left. A symptom of a divided country where the lunatics on both sides hold the high ground.

thread_title: Bias

message: This bio appears to be cut and pasted from FoxNews, NPR and other sources. It seems to be a "canned" bio, but still violates WP:C. Or at the very least it's plagiarized and not up to Wiki's quality standard.  SeaAndSand 01:26, 15 May 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Copyright Issues

message: Apparently this article has gone through some turmoil...it could be the start of something good at this point. As it stands though, there is only one reference, which itself is worthless. One reference is rather meager for the bio on a living person, isn't it? Perhaps not, as this is a very small article. But the reference given does not cover all of the facts put forward, nor does the reference itself seem very reliable.CsCran 23:13, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Reference problem?  

message: I took out the line "NPR has taken issue with appearing on Fox News" as there was no citation and this isn't actually a sentence.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.76.225.48 (talk) 19:34, 2 January 2010 (UTC)
