Charles Moore and the BBC edit
OK, the qualifier you added was removed, with explanation. Instead of then trying to justify it via talk, you've just reverted that removal and put it back in again. What does Moore's stand on the BBC have to do with this? This comes across as at best a rather petty bid to have a POV go at Moore on an unrelated page and at worst little more than poisoning the well. Even a more general description of him as, say, a "conservative columnist" would be edging that way; plus, if we do it for him, why not for every other source cited? The "left-wing metropolitan listings magazine" Time Out? The "pro-public sector" Guardian newspaper? Your claim that he is an "extremist" is all well and good but that's your description and not a reason for singling him out for such a qualification. N-HH talk/edits 15:38, 7 October 2013 (UTC)
Plus "for whom it is known that he went to such extreme as to refuse to pay for a public broadcasting service for disagreeing with its alleged leftist bias" is barely English. N-HH talk/edits 15:40, 7 October 2013 (UTC)
- I agree, Moore's stance on the BBC has nothing to do with this article. The "qualifier" is POV pushing and should be removed.--Britannicus (talk) 16:00, 7 October 2013 (UTC)
