Date of birth edit

It is different than the one from Find-A-Grave. Lincher 20:11, 24 March 2006 (UTC)Reply

Beware libel edit

I have removed Category:Al Capone associates and Category:Jewish American mobsters because nothing in this article says anything about that. See WP:LIBEL. IZAK 01:31, 9 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

Moses Annenberg died on 20 July 1942. The tort of defamation, at least in every US jurisdiction, applies only to the living and even then is difficult to prove in any US jurisdiction because of the protections offered by the First Amendment. WP:LIBEL could not possibly apply to any assertions, whether true or not, made about the character of a person who on 9 May 2007 had been dead for almost sixty-five years.1.121.105.43 (talk) 13:58, 6 April 2015 (UTC)Reply

Not Worthy edit

This carefully sanitized version of Annenberg's life says nothing of his ties to Al Capone, the East Coast mob, or the gambling industry, yet that is how he made his fortune. This version is not worthy of Wikipedia. 24.117.199.18 (talk) 02:54, 13 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

If I may add this, here. This historian's work is very thorough. Annenberg was a GANGSTER before anything else. http://www.pulpartists.com/Annenberg-P.html--Zorusson (talk) 23:11, 27 April 2021 (UTC)Reply

Not Relevant edit

I removed this phrase about Walter Annenberg, "who inherited his father's business and went on to found Triangle Publications and later the Annenberg Foundation. Since its founding the Annenberg Foundation has awarded over 5,200 grants, which total in excess of $2.8 billion. [1] The Annenberg Foundation has major programs in education, youth development, arts, culture, humanities, civic, community, health and human services, animal services as well as the environment.[2]" because it says nothing about Moses, but instead is entirely about his son. I think this is in here to mitigate the damage to Moses done by his conviction and ties to crime lords. It reads to me like something inserted by a public relations firm to improve the reader's opinion of Moses. As such it has no place in this article. Nick Beeson (talk) 11:17, 16 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
