Talk:Hugh Hewitt

message: I am surprised that all of these unsourced CV points remain here. Tone and content are typical of a Hewitt publicist. One most obvious example is the idea that the RMN Library job came "at the request" of the former president. Further, there is no source whatsoever for any of these purported high government jobs. This stuff needs to be sourced or removed.
This site needs to stop being used as a publicity front for corporate interests.

text: I've matched the Reagan administration claims with the abstract citation provided. (The pdf link on the citation does not work). Once again, happy to replace these bio points once properly sourced. I would add however, that Mr. Hewitt's "career" in the Reagan "White House" merits skepticism. Even if the claims are believed, he held four jobs inside of four years in three different departments ending ultimately, in a fringe government HR job.

message: could someone tell me what hugh hewitt beat michael medved in? something aobut minnesota?
:Hm. He and Medved were in a trivia contest at a PR appearance at a bar in Minneapolis where, if memory serves, Hewitt's team beat Medved's team. Not really encyclopedic...

message: The section on Hugh Hewitts blogging (which somehow manage to avoid actually talking about his blog) is incredibly weak. For one thing "new media" has absolutely nothing to do with conservatism. It is just as much a liberal movement, and to say it is conservative marginalizes Hewitts contribution to blogging. If someone could find a confirmed source for the year he started blogging that would also go a long way. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.115.126.82 (talk • contribs) 00:34, 19 September 2006
:Quite true. Thanks, 65.115.126.82, for pointing that out. Would you like to have a try at expanding that section yourself? Feel free to edit the article itself; if you make any mistakes, someone else will (almost certainly) edit them out. Or you can write your ideas here. Cheers, CWC(talk) 08:50, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

message: In a Slate.com article today (Jan. 31, 2007 http://www.slate.com/id/2158699/) by highly respected presidential historian David Greenberg (http://www.scils.rutgers.edu/~davidgr/) himself a Nixon scholar, Prof. Greenberg states that Hewitt was fired from the Nixon Library due to the controversial policy of vetting scholars based on pro-Nixon views. The wikipedia entry that "Hewitt left" the Library is, therefore, dubious and misleading based on this very reliable source. Revision should be strongly considered. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.102.12.73 (talk • contribs) 20:04, 31 January 2007 UTC
:Hmm. That opinion piece claims that "Bush has, like the most facile Postmodernists, denigrated the expertise of long-standing authorities, deeming their claims to authority mere masks for a political agenda", so Prof Greenberg is not making any pretense of neutrality. The only mention of HH is this:
::When Hugh Hewitt, the original director of the Nixon Library, said he would screen and bar insufficiently pro-Nixon researchers, he was countermanded and sacked. The SMU administration, in contrast, ...
:My feeling is that this offhand remark in a highly-slanted opinion piece is not a reliable enough source to meet the requirements of WP:BLP. What do other editors think? CWC(talk) 11:47, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia.
This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link.
If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting.
If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page.
If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request it's removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta.
When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags.
The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true.

message: Anybody that has listened to the Hugh Hewitt show for any length of time knows that Hugh Hewitt describes himself as a "Catholic" and a Presbyterian in this Hugh Hewitt is stating: 
"I'm an Evangelical Roman Catholic Presbyterian, Andrew." -  http://www.hughhewitt.com/andrew-sullivan-on-the-conservative-soul/
When a Protestant calls themselves, "Catholic," we are saying that we agree with the Creeds of the Roman Catholic Church.  This is "catholic" in the sense of the word "catholic" in the Nicene Creed: 
"I believe in one, holy, catholic and apostolic Church." Notice small "c" - From the Nicene Creed of the United States Catholic Bishops http://www.usccb.org/beliefs-and-teachings/what-we-believe/ This is the Catholic Church in the sense of those that are Real believers in Christ as "I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ, the Only Begotten Son of God, born of the Father before all ages. God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not made, consubstantial with the Father; through him all things were made." - Nicene CreedEaseltine (talk) 02:07, 25 February 2016 (UTC)

message: The originator(s) of this article typed the title in italics instead of standard roman type. (The article refers to the man himself, not to his talk show.) This is the only WP article I find with this style error, and it will probably require a formal title move -- unless someone knows how to change the italics to roman without that (rather) drastic step.
