Talk:Alison Stewart

Untitled
I object to the deletion of this Wikipedia article about the well-known journalist Alison Stewart. Just to eliminate any confusion, she is married to a Vice President of MSNBC, which in fact is irrelevant to her professional accomplishments. As is her racial and/or ethnic background. She is now employed by National Public Radio. She is a highly skilled and personable professional journalist and definitely fits the criteria for inclusion in Wikipedia.

I created the redirect because she doesn't seem to have done much that's notable, other than being married to a famous person. Joyous 03:32, Dec 3, 2004 (UTC)

But who really is Alison Stewart ?
According to the history of the article, it was first speaking about the wife of Bono, the singer of U2. But now it speaks about an American TV anchor. Is it the same person ? Revas 00:47, 19 July 2005 (UTC)


 * Different people as far as I can tell. I replaced a redirect to MSNBC with a stub.  Now looking at the history, someone had replaced a redirect to Bono with the MSNBC redir. Boisemedia 18:50, July 19, 2005 (UTC)

Stewart A Chamleon
Just saw Stewart today on PBS and she's a different person. I'd like to know someone's take on just what she's trying to accomplish with the changes.Godofredo29 (talk) 01:44, 8 February 2015 (UTC)

Accusation
There were some accusations inside the article, with source... an article in a blog. As per WP:REF and WP:BLP this is not acceptable. Deleted, and please don't reinsert. David.Monniaux 19:14, 19 January 2007 (UTC)

Racially-biased wording
I couldn't help but notice that the first sentence of this article identified Alison Stewart as "an African American journalist", but I checked around and also discovered that, in fact, none of the other biographies I looked at identified their subjects as "Caucasian American journalist" or "German American journalist", or any similar wording, which seems to imply that the only reason it's used here is because she's black and somebody wanted to highlight that fact. Given that Stewart's race, as far as I know, has never been a significant factor in how she has presented herself, her career, or other noteworthy aspects of her life, and the rest of the article seems to agree with this assessment, the inclusion of this particular specifier on the first line of the article, giving it particular emphasis, seems to be somewhat inappropriate, uncharacteristic, and smacks of racist pidgeonholing, so I have removed it.

If her race is indeed important in some way to the noteworthy aspects of her life, I would suggest adding it as a separate section with some further explanation of why it is relevant to the Wikipedia article. -- Foogod 20:51, 1 June 2007 (UTC)
