Defamation verdict and bankruptcy filing[edit]

I think the $148 million defamation verdict against him, and his filing for bankruptcy six days later, should be in the opening section. Those are very significant life events. Krakatoa (talk) 10:24, 18 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed. I added a sentence about it to the lede pbp 15:45, 12 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Media section addition[edit]

Rudy appeared (and had speaking lines) in the film Anger Management with Adam Sandler, where he played himself. 2601:8C0:380:35C0:6197:EE2B:5733:65A4 (talk) 18:30, 28 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

And who can forget his scene in Borat Subsequent Moviefilm -- a classic (where he also played himself)... Nomoskedasticity (talk) 20:09, 28 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Text removed when trimming lede[edit]

  • In an effort to reform the police department's administration and policing practices, they applied the broken windows theory.[1] Accordingly, Giuliani removed panhandlers and sex clubs from Times Square.[2] As crime rates fell steeply, well ahead of the national average pace, Giuliani was widely credited, though later critics cite other contributing factors.[3]
    • This goes far too in the weeds about his/Bratton's crime policy for the lede. A sentence or two saying civic cleanup and crime policies will suffice
  • The theory states that social disorder, like disrepair and vandalism, attracts loitering addicts, panhandlers, prostitutes, and criminals.[4]
    • It is not necessary to explain broken windows theory in the lede; a link to the article on broken windows theory will suffice
  • Giuliani was arrested on August 23, 2023, and a mugshot was released.[5][6][7]
    • It is not necessary to mention this in the lede; it would logically be inferred that, if indicted, he would be arrested, and, if arrested, he'd have a mugshot taken.
  • In addition, he has often been engaged for public speaking, political commentary, and Republican campaign support.[3]
    • It is quite common for this to be true of any politician of Rudy's stature and therefore need not be mentioned in the lede.
  • As a consequence, his license to practice law was suspended in New York State in June 2021,[8] and in the District of Columbia in July 2021.[9][10]
    • Too specific for the lede
  • In late 2019, Giuliani was reportedly under federal investigation for violating lobbying laws,[11]as a central figure in the Trump–Ukraine scandal,[12] which resulted in Trump's first impeachment.[13]
    • Out-of-date; language shortened to read simply "was a central figure in the Trump-Ukraine scandal.
  • as well as his promotion of conspiracy theories, most notably about the 2018 and 2020 elections.[14][15]
    • Redundant to sentences that outline his comments about the 2020 election
