message: How could he have run for governor of Kansas every year in the early 1930s?  Gubernatorial elections do not take place annually.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.176.151.6 (talk) 22:29, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: You missed May 7, 1915 in Kansas City, the date when Brinkley earned/bought/attained the degree he sought, a degree that wasn't useful in, say, New York where the AMA was powerful, but was recognized in eight other states. Binksternet (talk) 14:16, 8 June 2009 (UTC)

Are you kidding me? this is not an encyclopedia entry, it's a crime novel that needs more volume, needs a complete rewrite.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.14.223.47 (talk) 22:58, 8 December 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  The whole language of this article is unencyclopedic 

message: Los Angeles Times should be ital as the name of a newspaper.  Also, technically it's The Kansas City Star, not the Kansas City Star. Also, JAMA should be ital.  Relink of "Kansas City Ecelectic Medical College" should be redir to Eclectic Medical University".  Would correct these myself but it's edit-protected.  75.252.252.66 (talk) 02:58, 16 September 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Likewise, it should be The Des Moines Register.  And the Roy Faulkner bio linked to is a footballer, not a country music player, so disambiguation is in order. 75.252.252.66 (talk) 03:28, 16 September 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Also, in 1941, it was still the Post Office Department and was three decades from becoming the USPS.  75.252.252.66 (talk) 03:46, 16 September 2011 (UTC)

thread_title:  Very minor issues (but issues nonetheless) 

message: Is this ready to go through Wikipedia:Featured article review, or are there clear shortcomings that should be remedied? I am thinking this would make an excellent main page FA because (a) I don't recall anything like this appearing, and (b) quite simply, it's very interesting article.--A bit iffy (talk) 14:49, 11 November 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: When I was helping expand the article I concentrated on Brinkley's early career: his rise. What is not fully covered yet is the long progression downward into bankruptcy and public condemnation. More could be made of his effect on radio broadcasting as well. The Resler book on radio was not cited at all. Binksternet (talk) 15:40, 11 November 2012 (UTC)
