Clean up
editI am going to clean up this article. Things like- "They got married in 1974 and had one daughter, Autumn, who has followed her father's footsteps into music, and now works at Capitol Records in Nashville after working as a song plugger for Reba McEntire's company and Madonna's Maverick Records." sound like Fancruft and have no sources. A majority of this article has no sources and reads like it was written by a fan or family members. I will work and check this article daily to improve it. If anyone would like to help feel free to help me.--99.177.250.140 (talk) 01:45, 2 April 2010 (UTC)
Changes
editI am removing the following. 1) "His mother (who died in 1997) was a homemaker and his father (who died in 1989) was an electrician. As well as Gerry, Homer and Lucille raised a daughter who was 13 years Gerry's senior." There are no sources for this and what is his sister's name who is "13 years his senior"?
2)House met his future wife, Allyson Faulkner, at elementary school in Walton, Kentucky. House was 3 years her senior. Again,no sources and reads as Fancruft.
3)They got married in 1974 and had one daughter, Autumn, who has followed her father's footsteps into music, and now works at Capitol Records in Nashville after working as a song plugger for Reba McEntire's company and Madonna's Maverick Records. Again,no sources and again Fancruft. This reads like a publicist wrote it.
4)"In the early 1980s, WSIX-FM, a pioneer country music-formatted FM outlet, became the market's leading country station, and the station appointed House to host a new morning show." No sources and "pioneer and "leading country station" sounds biased. Also there is nothing in the article to back up the station was a "pioneer" and the "markets leading country station".
5)"The House Foundation was split up in 1985 when House left for a WSIX competitor, WSM-AM, citing politics within WSIX's ownership as the reason. At WSM, he was the final host of the long-running Waking Crew show, a program that featured the last remaining live radio orchestra in the U.S" No sources for any of this. How do we really know he left because of " politics within WSIX's ownership"? Also there are no sources for "a program that featured the last remaining live radio orchestra in the U.S"
6)"House disliked the culture at KLAC and wanted to be back in Music City with his friends." This is ridiculous and has no sources.
7)"House also has his much-talked-about "palace" in Pegram, Tennessee." I believe this statement speaks for itself. It is biased and unsourced. Also what determines a home to be a "palace" exactly?--99.177.250.140 (talk) 02:36, 2 April 2010 (UTC)
