[edit]

I have rated this article as a stub because it needs to be split into sections and also more relevant information. GDon4t0 20:41, 25 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Any citation for this?

[edit]

During his report, he allegedly became the first person on television to use the word "hippie"

If there is any kind of reliable source for this, please add it so it won't have to be removed. If it can be referenced, it would also make a valuable addition to Hippie (etymology) where considerable pains have been taken to find any referenced uses of the word that early.

Unencyclopedic tone

[edit]

The article uses lots of phrases that don't fit wikipedia's tone, such as "proud son of the Bronx" or "fought like a bulldog". Sentences like "[e]ach of those politicians and other world leaders have said 'Well, Gabe' at least once in response to Pressman's pointed questioning" are also not of the right tone.

photo

[edit]

Photo of the subject of an article shouldn't be just a crop from a topical photo within the article. Can someone replace current lede photo with a shot of Pressman's face? Martindo (talk) 01:25, 28 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Martindo. It appears you visited the article during a brief period when the image of Pressman that was added on Friday was replaced by a poor-quality crop from the Malcolm X image. — Malik Shabazz Talk/Stalk 03:21, 28 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
