Untitled[edit]

I have added a cititation request because Chambers Biographical Dictionary says he was born in 1868. Chicheley 21:08, 20 June 2006 (UTC) I've added three citations for the birthdate. In addition, the other sources that I checked mentioned the same day. Look good? cbustapeck 21:00, 6 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Mention the most important thing about him in the intro?[edit]

I guarantee that anyone who looks for Robert S. Abbott will be looking for his relationship with the Chicago Defender. The intro is typically used to save people time in reading thru half of the page to find the reason why this person is important. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.107.146.19 (talk) 12:29, 21 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

25 cents equals 600 dollars?[edit]

The text says that the Defender was started with an investment of 25 cents, the equivalent of 600 dollars today. I don't think that either of these numbers is true. In fact, I think that the entry has been vandalized. — Preceding unsigned comment added by RJBowman (talk • contribs) 15:31, 12 August 2015 (UTC) actually 25 dollars in 1905 is worth 600 but 25 cents is worth 7.33 so you are right[reply]
