Talk:Michael Peroutka

message: "Peroutka was also endorsed by the League of The South, a neo-confederate group who has been listed by the Southern Poverty Law Center as a racist organization."
I feel that it's very misleading. Also those civil rights groups obviously have agendas and frankly I dont give them much credibility. This sentence if very one sided. Can we please discuss a more balanced alternative?

replies: text: Accepting an endorsement from a particular organization does not mean the individual shares the core beliefs as the organization - it is guilt by association.  Unless a reliable source is cited that Peroutka himself has racial tendacies in his past, I think the comment of the LOS being a racial organization on Peroutka's bio page is very inflamitory.  Have it if you will on the LOS page, something which can be Wiki-linked to and the reader can draw their own conclusions from.  What's next after stating the LOS is labeled as raciest, stating an opposing view that the SPLC is accused of being ________?  It's just not needed.  Also, please remember to sign your comments with "~~~~" at the end.  Thanks —akghetto talk 18:55, 4 February 2006 (UTC)

text: Your intent may not have been to declare Peroutka a racist, however I think we need to keep in mind what the average person who reads this article will infer.  If you want to stick to the facts, I think that Peroutka receiving an endorsement/nomination is a matter of fact.  That the LOS is accused of being a racist organization though is something that I do not believe needs to be in this bio.  As I previously stated - just because a group endorses a particular candidate does not mean that candidate has anything to do with the organizations' beliefs, actions, or other interests.  Bush and Kerry both received what I would consider less than desirable endorsements ranging from the Chinese Communist party [www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1184147/posts] to Pornographers  and even the government of Iran , and no, those endorsements are not in either candidates biography , .  You may consider it a "fact" that the LOS is a racist organization - that's not what I'm debating, nor what I consider to be the issue here.  The issue is whether this "fact" should be on Peroutka's page.  I believe what should happen is an article should be started for the LOS, a wikilink be on Peroutka's page as it is now (the redlink) with the SPLC's acusation moved to the new LOS article.  This will allow the reader to infer what they will, and return Peroutka's article to a more NPOV stance.  —akghetto talk 02:10, 6 February 2006 (UTC)

message: First of all, the opening paragraph refers to this guy as "far right". That's a loosely defined pejorative term. 
Also, is it really appropriate for the opening section to list criticisms of this guy? Shouldn't the opening section simply provide a basic summary of who he is? I would think that criticisms would be listed lower down. 
For instance, the opening mentions that he discussed conspiracy theories on a radio show in 2006. Should a collection of 16 year old radio appearances be considered one of his defining characteristics? 
He's currently running for a state office, and this article really seems like it was written by someone with a political agenda. This looks like Democratic Party opposition research that was placed in the opening section to make it as visible as possible. This is not up to Wikipedia's standards. It makes the site look bad.
