Talk:Edward Jay Epstein

message: Even the stub without references contains many errors, e.g. in the titles of the books. Suggest should not be a low priority entry. Epstein is a figure of some importance because he cast the first stone at the Warren Commission and then later became a Boswell to legendary CIA counterspy James Jesus Angleton.

thread_title: This Article Needs Clean Up

message: Reviews of Legend: The Secret World of Lee Harvey Oswald -Location (talk) 20:48, 11 August 2014 (UTC)
thread_title: For future reference

message: It appears that - as stated by an earlier commenter - he was a little too close to Angleton at the CIA.  More recently, he has published an 'opinion' piece at the Wall Street Journal titled 'The Fable of Edward Snowden', in which Epstein appears to have closely followed the discounted arguments of the NSA.  Refer for instance to Barton Gellman's Twitter feed and the articles to which it links, including a post at Errata Security, and Barton Gellman's own article about the House Intelligence Committee's Snowden report.  Mr Epstein appears to have relied quite extensively on the HIC report, which is comprehensively debunked in the Gellman article.
Epstein's lack of curiosity regarding the facts behind his 'opinion' certainly seems in conflict to his claims to be either 'investigative' or indeed an independent 'reporter'.  Even before his Snowden take-down commences, Epstein uses the sub-title to make a bald statement that "the NSA thief has told multiple lies".  Not exactly a 'cautious toe in the water' - especially since most of these alleged 'lies' have been disproven in the other articles to which I have linked, while Snowden has not 'stolen' anything.
Presumably there are others with better knowledge about Epstein's ability to string words together, and willingness or otherwise to work independently, but I suggest that at the very least this smear campaign he has decided to jump into requires at least a brief mention in his Wikipedia entry under the title 'Controversy'.  There are presumably many more pieces of information that rebut Epstein's claims, but I have been lazy.
I am happy to be advised by those who have better knowledge of the subject, before making any changes to the main article. Ambiguosity (talk) 14:14, 4 January 2017 (UTC)

Talk:New Snohomish High School

message: I believe this article IS notable, as it deals with both a school currently under construction and of great interest to the snohomish school disctict, and also links from the "snohomish high school page".
::Check WP:SCHOOL. Schools under construction are not notable for almost every reason cited. Richardjames444 18:14, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

message: People may consider a school to be notable if it verifiably meets at least one of the following criteria:
   1. The school has been the subject of multiple non-trivial published works whose source is independent of the school itself.
yes, these sources were newspapers, but the mention of the school was NOT in passing, but rather the articles were about the school, and the skyrocketing costs of its construction.
I think this article IS notable.
::feel free to change the prod to an afd prod, and see what the consensus is. The problem is that aside from the info about how much it costs, there is nothing to say about the school.Richardjames444 18:39, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

message: Tasha was not "...friends with Sidney Lumet" He was her acting teacher at High School of the Performing Arts before her public acting career started. That's all. They didn't socialize, didn't work together, nothing. Sidney never cast her in a film. They were not friends. Who makes this stuff up?
and Shane (grandson) didn't simply die (at age 20). He tragically shot himself in the head moments after learning that his mother had passed away from cancer.

message: I checked and rechecked and now I am just confused. How has this history remained since 2014? Fort Parker massacre (as per the link in history section) occurred at Fort Parker, "near Mexia and to Limestone County seat Groesbeck, Texas."

I don't have the research at my fingertips...  but I'm pretty sure that Elkhart's "tie" to Fort Parker has to do with Daniel Parker, and others who (I think) came to and established Elkhart after the massacre at Fort Parker.

I know it by myself but I would like to cit. German Wikipedia: After retiring in 1985 he could (also in 1985) finish his qualification as a pilot and was employed by the airline "Tyrolian Airways". He was hired as a co-commentator by the Austrian TV-broadcaster ORF. He had to interrupt all his works by fall sick with testicle cancer in February 2007. On February 19th, he was on a flight from Vienna to London-Heathrow, when he did feel an abdominal pain. After his return, he did seek medical advice at the department for urology of the "Universitätsklinik Innsbruck" (medical center in Innsbruck), and on February 20th, surgical removal of one testis was completed.
