I've had a news alert on Dale[edit]

I've had a news alert on Dale. What follows is a partial list of articles that mention or reference him. Geo Swan (talk) 22:14, 24 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delivering his fact-checking reports without reading them?[edit]

It appears to me that Dale has an outstanding ability to deliver his extensive fact-checking reports without reading them. Is there anything written about this? John Link (talk) 15:02, 28 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@John Link: here is a tweet from him:

Thanks so much Rich. It was on Prompter - I don’t usually use it, but can’t possibly remember that crazy number of things.

List of fact checks seems pointless[edit]

He just does so many; I think there should just be a few notable ones rather than what is apparently an attempt to list every fact check by him of non-Trump politicians. DemonDays64 (talk) 03:49, 29 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Stay on subject -[edit]

Very little of substance regarding Daniel Dale - the supposed subject of this article. One might easily conclude it's a Donald Trump hit piece and little more. Scrap the Trump "psychological evaluations" and Dale's personal opinions and what remains? Not much. Snit333 (talk) 00:53, 24 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This article should include the credible accusations that his fact checking is primarily to support the Democratic Party in the United States: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-4rq7JfcKms — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.51.227.35 (talk) 04:26, 7 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Expanded article[edit]

I expanded the article a bit, added a Personal life section and removed some of the irrelevant statements. Isi96 (talk) 10:56, 9 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Daniel dale[edit]

“Daniel Dale was born to a Jewish family and raised in Thornhill, Ontario.

this is an openly passive /aggressive racist sentence. 24.60.158.120 (talk) 01:22, 2 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
