Talk:Ron Suskind

Life, Animated film

Needs to be added to article and linked to the wiki page for the documentary based on Suskind's book. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 172.248.214.103 (talk) 04:15, 6 February 2017 (UTC)

I have added link. FrankSier (talk) 13:43, 4 March 2017 (UTC)

"left wing"

An anon is repeatedly adding this term. May need to be blocked.

Hype

This article is full of POV hype, presumably from someone who wishes to promote Suskind's books; e.g. the following:

The Way of the World marked the fullest return of the investigative narrative form that shaped Suskind’s first book, A Hope in the Unseen. This powerful technique was praised by many in reviewing “Way of the World”.

I can't be bothered to clean this stuff up, but perhaps someone else could? 93.96.236.8 (talk) 10:19, 22 June 2009 (UTC)

"Confidence Men" book review in New York Review of Books

"Confidence Men" book review in New York Review of Books page 10 "Obama's Flunking Economy: The Real Cause" 97.87.29.188 (talk) 00:27, 10 November 2011 (UTC)

Conflict of Interest?

A tag was added in September claiming that "A major contributor to this article appears to have a close connection with its subject" but there is no discussion on this talk page. Who is it? What's your evidence? That's a pretty serious charge to be throwing around casually.Msalt (talk) 02:34, 9 November 2012 (UTC)

Based on the reading voice I'd say there is none hence posting to remove the COI. JPCreedon — Preceding undated comment added 20:13, 6 March 2014 (UTC)

Critical book reviews needed

I am sure there exist reviews of suskind's books that disagree with and criticize him, and some of those reviews should be mentioned and quoted in the article, to provide balance.65.130.253.244 (talk) 07:46, 16 February 2014 (UTC)

I agree that if such reviews exist they should be in here. Like too many reviews of media and public relations people, it reads like a resume or personal website. Coretheapple (talk) 16:45, 25 September 2016 (UTC)

Age Is Incorrect

Math is not my strong point, but is not Mr. Suskind's age incorrect in his info box? It says he's 54, but it should say he's 56 -- I think.

Proposed merger

I'm proposing a redirect of the page Reality-based community to this article. The phrase itself seems to lack the notability required for a stand-alone article, and essentially all the sourced content in it already exists here. I'm only bothering to open a discussion at all because that page was previously nominated for deletion twice, and twice kept. —Sangdeboeuf (talk) 05:31, 13 June 2017 (UTC)

• Closing this because discussion has been taken to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Reality-based community (3rd nomination).E.M.Gregory (talk) 15:16, 10 September 2017 (UTC)
