mis-date in reference?
[edit]Reference #7 appears to be misdated based on the context of the cite. I believe it should be "July" not "June". —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.110.134.19 (talk) 01:09, 14 July 2009 (UTC)
White House Staff?
[edit]Is there perhaps an infobox for present white house staff? It seems like it would be at least as useful to connect the man to has co-workers as to connect him with his predecessors.
"US didnt start the war"-tony snow
[edit]at this years conservative political action conference he said "we didnt create the war in iraq".... this deserves a mention on this page
Daily Show redux
[edit]Should the piece last night (well it was on last night in Australia, so perhaps last few days) be mentioned? Basically, it showed two different Tony Snow White House press conferences, one stating flat out that the firings by Alberto Gonzales were Performance based then the recent one where Mr. Snow is asked a question by a reporter referencing his recorded comments about the firings being based on performance and stating point blank that he has never claimed the firings were based on performance. Jon Stewart then played the comments back to back multiple times and accused Mr Snow of lying. Does this in some way go against Biographies of a Living Person, because if not I think it belongs here.

Here [1] is a link to a column by Washingtonpost.com columnist Dan Froomkin, which discusses and quotes the Daily Show the piece. WookMuff 11:51, 19 June 2007 (UTC)
- The video you describe seems like it would be important to add to the article. Why didn't the mainstream media bother reporting on this prevarication by the White House in any substantive way? Why, hmm? Cardinal Logan (talk) 19:30, 12 July 2008 (UTC)
Yeah Cardinal, that one's a real shocker. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.204.164.155 (talk) 11:49, 14 July 2008 (UTC)
The factor
[edit]Tony snow is now involved in 'The Radio Factor'. See this source for details: [2]
Whatever a "permanent fill-in host" is.

- The Radio Factor and The O'Reilly Factor are two different medias. They are not interchangeable. Someone made that mistake in the article so I corrected it. Contralya (talk) 17:34, 24 February 2008 (UTC)
Illness section too long?
[edit]The section on Snow's illness is now longer than the section detailing his stint as press secretary. This would make sense only if his terminal illness had been a foundational part of his public persona (e.g., Lou Gehrig). Any reason for not collapsing almost the entire illness section together with the death section in a much more concise and essential piece of text? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Vaudedoc (talk • contribs) 15:06, 12 July 2008 (UTC)
- Illness section should be rolled into death section and reduced in size. There are much more important things to say about this man who worked for Fox News and then the Bush White House. Cardinal Logan (talk) 22:42, 12 July 2008 (UTC)
"Certain Civility"
[edit]"Certain civility" quote is by George H.W. Bush, not George W. Bush according to the cited source. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 144.171.154.95 (talk) 20:01, 14 July 2008 (UTC)
- Calbaer clarified this in r225884379 Tyler Oderkirk (talk) 13:54, 16 July 2008 (UTC)
Daily Show Redux Redux, and Media Matters
[edit]Now that Tony Snow no longer fits the category of "Biography of a Living Person" (and indeed such a category no longer exists) is it such an issue to include even a skerrick of criticism, which is surely more important than his ability to play six instruments?
