This article refers to 'Abbott' and his/her importance several times without ever giving a first name or title as though this text is a piece of a larger article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.57.209.142 (talk) 23:41, 22 March 2011 (UTC)Reply
The PBS broadcast film The Black Press: Soldiers Without Swords (The Black Press: Soldiers Without Swords at IMDb) was released in 1999, and it is believed, based upon dates in the Internet Archive, that the PBS Black Press pages were created at that time. The first occurrence in the Internet Archive of "The Chicago Defender" page is the 12 July 2000 entry. That entry predates the creation of this page on 12 August 2002 by Shsilver. Although both the PBS article and this page may share a common non-copyrighted source, there is no evidence of this. As a result of this investigation I will delete the compromising text. --Bejnar (talk) 19:07, 6 May 2010 (UTC)Reply
I have no problem with you deleting possible copyrighted text, although you might have wanted to do so in a manner which didn't compromise the integrity of the article itself. Perhaps actually replace the lede rather than simply delete it.Shsilver (talk) 19:48, 6 May 2010 (UTC)Reply

The 2004 feature article "Black Is Back" in Editor & Publisher goes into some depth about the paper's reemergence in that era. Worth digging into it, for possible expansion of Wikipedia coverage.
