message: The phrase "Unlike the majority of reporters who stay in hotels in Baghdad" is an unfair assessment.
It is not an unfair assessment. Pat Dollard lived ate and went everywhere the Marines did.
You can tell in  his videos by the way the Marines talk to him. The Marines are very Insular so getting their respect is a lot of work.
People have their opinions about Pat Dollard, but unfair. He was almost killed in Iraq and the guy sitting next to him in the vehicle was killed.
Typical, people come home from a war and everybody acts like it is no big deal. Well, it is a horrible deal.
Pat Dollard is my friend and I find much to admire about him. As a career Soldier I would go into combat with him at anu time.
Those who have never been to war just cannot relate.
Pat works very hard to keep his act together First Hand in person knowledge.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 73.26.1.1 (talk) 03:55, 2 May 2022 (UTC)

"Deleted some self promotion" ? Apparently not enough - the entire entry is still here.  Wow. What a whitewash someone did! Dannyinla 02:53, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  definition of patrolling 

message: Removed the sentence "He has been widely attacked by the left for the  pro-war stance displayed in early clips of his documentary series 'Young Americans.'" after doing a Google search and finding nothing critical in the first 30 results; created a Criticism section that mentions the VF article.

thread_title:  More NPOV 

message: Someone (or several someones) has repeatedly deleted the Controversy (nee Criticism) section of this article.  I believe the section should be included, based on the fact that the controversy turns up immediately in a Google search of the name.
Moreover, the justifications used for these deletions are quite weak, I believe: "user is known dollard critic" (I'd never heard of Dollard till the day I edited the article), "misstates legality of option deal" (???), "headline controversy intentional defamation" (controversy was substituted for criticism because it seemed more neutral). 
Do other editors agree that the section should be included, or disagree? Kayobee 22:11, 3 May 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Controversy over "Controversy" 

message: I can't find a single reference to Dollard's documentary now being produced by Tony and Ridley Scott.  Unless someone knows where this information comes from, it should probably be removed.  Tony Scott's interest in producing a fictionalized account of Dollard's life is verifiable.--Cank 18:45, 30 May 2007 (UTC)

message: The site's down now because of a posting about New Hampshire, it's gained too much popularity from Digg: http://digg.com/world_news/New_Hampshire_Fires_First_Shot_Of_Civil_War_2?OTC-ig Skydive23 (talk) 21:39, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Site crashes after Blog article gets Digged 

message: This piece is a mess now, particularly the "controversy" segment, which reads like a fan's defense of Dollard by way of a fan's attack on perceived critics, ignoring fact, logic, and elementary sentence construction in his quest. (Wright's a "pornographer" because he reviewed porn?   What documentary by David Carr-Brown?  What "cult for Jann Wenner"?  For crying out loud, 4 of the first 5 hits for your "reference" link to a google search of Waxman + "bad reporting" present her reporting in a positive light.)  
Now that Dollard's not in the news any longer, does anyone have objections to a thorough clean-up of this sad page?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kayobee (talk • contribs) 21:46, 19 May 2009 (UTC)
