Talk:Michael Kinsley

message: : Kinsley became editor of The New Republic in 1979 and wrote that magazine's famous TRB column...
Apparently it's not that famous. I've never heard of it, I can't figure out what TRB stands for, and there's no WP article on it. What is it? --Tysto 21:38, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: TRB column?

message: I just searched the Time website and found a bunch of columns--perhaps bi-weekly in 2008. I wonder if anyone knows his official relationship to Time.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 198.86.248.1 (talk) 21:38, 3 June 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Is Kinsley now a regular Time or Time.com columnist?

message: Wow! its july 24th, and already there's an entry on a surgery two weeks before. 
This on a I venture saying low frequency article. This stuff is almost real-time encyclopeding!!!
You guys are great!! --213.54.166.204 00:18, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

message: This is a factual article about Kinsley, not a debate about his views.  The pasting of someone else's (Chomsky's) POV doesn't make it any less POV.  Furthermore, the person who inserted the POV describes Kinsley's "reporting".  Kinsley is not a reporter, he is a columnist who writes opinion pieces.—J M Rice 20:33, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

message: In a Bloomberg column on September 29, 2011, Kinsley wrote
"So why should Christie’s weight be more than we can bear in a president? Why should it even be a legitimate issue if he runs?
One reason is that a presidential candidate should be judged on behavior and character, not just on policies . . . .  Perhaps Christie is the one to help us get our national appetites under control. But it would help if he got his own under control first."

I think that kind of bigotry is relevant enough to be included in the main article.  Or you could just wait a few days until Bloomberg fires him.

thread_title:  Bigotry 

message: Who gets to render such pronouncements in a Wikipedia article? Is there some elite who have the authority to judge things like this and, for example, what is biased (which has been used to justify continuing right wing bias and remove objective criticism)? ---Dagme (talk) 02:32, 5 November 2012 (UTC)
