Talk:James Wolcott

message: The article includes POV praise, making it read like a fan site.  For example:
:"...an American journalist, well-known for his stylish critique of contemporary media."
Who says he's "well-known?"  Who says his critiques are "stylish?"
Additionally, the whole bit about his blog being "popular" is also POV. Just because Vanity Fair picked it up does not automatically mean it's popular. Cite some objective, neutral source to back that assertion. Jinxmchue 12:31, 10 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Better now. (I didn't make the changes myself because I've found that pointing out the flaws and letting someone else on the other side of the issue make changes cuts down on the edit wars.) Jinxmchue 04:07, 11 June 2007 (UTC)

message: So, he was lured by the late Leo Lurman?  Wasn't he verily vexed to be visiting the vicacious Vanity Fair?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.83.83.166 (talk) 19:51, 29 January 2010 (UTC)
