Criticism[edit]

I've just removed two items from the "criticism" section, because they violate WP:RS. (Both were quotes from http://members.tripod.com/~american_almanac/wallst1.htm, which is a copy of a 1998 article from the LaRouche movement.)

We are now left with one item of criticism, an article by someone named Max Sawicky. It arguably fails WP:EL and/or WP:RS; I've left it in mostly as a placeholder, in the hope that someone will find and add at least substantive, citable critique of the Editorial Board. Please?

Done! Motmot 10:24, 10 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, Motmot. (I made some changes to your contribution, though.) I've dropped the Max Sawicky link. Cheers, CWC 15:23, 10 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
It definitely looks tighter than before - thanks. For completeness, though, here's realclimate.org on the WSJ editorials and documented mutterings on many matters from fair.org - a 1995 article. Motmot 09:48, 11 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]


Criticism Redux[edit]

The criticism section of this, as detailed above, has been compleetly gutted. Considering that the main WSJ page notes that its own news division calls its editorial division 'Nazis' this seems a clear case of editor political bias. 71.195.87.156 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 22:13, 4 December 2009 (UTC).[reply]

James Taranto[edit]

It looks like the list of editorial board members lacks the name of James Taranto. (Tom Nally, New Orleans, entered 12-November-2011.) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 157.50.50.2 (talk) 00:25, 13 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Merger proposal[edit]

It has been suggested that The Wall Street Journal editorial board be merged into The Wall Street Journal. I agree per WP:CFORK and WP:DICDEF, as they are essentially duplicates with same subject, with the same scope. (Farooqahmadbhat (talk) 17:28, 8 December 2018 (UTC))[reply]

Yes, please merge. This is definite FORK. Snooganssnoogans (talk) 16:11, 1 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Merge for the given reasons. Gamingforfun365 05:47, 5 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I support the merge. This page serves no purpose. All the information in it can easily be put in the main WSJ article. Snooganssnoogans (talk) 11:05, 5 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
