Gloria Emerson
It should be noted that Gloria Emerson insulted Yoko Ono in that interview by calling her a whore. "You can have the chauffeur take the MBE and your whore to Buckingham Palace" ... or something to that effect. Very denigrating ...

She says CAR to buckingham palace, not Whore. 80.229.17.248 (talk) 22:16, 11 August 2015 (UTC)

John Lennon and the Anti-War Movement
Except for its first & last paragraphs, the entire John Lennon section seems to be copied from Emerson's interview with Lennon. So, I'm wondering:
 * This hardly seems encyclopedic. Wouldn't a brief description of her opinion of some of the anti-war movement be more appropriate?
 * Is this "fair use" or a copyright violation?

Also, this section's last paragraph seems to be an un-attributed editorial. As such, I'd think it should go. Any other thoughts?

 * Yes, your observations are very much on the mark. It's definitely a copyright violation -- needs to be drastically trimmed ASAP. And the final paragraph reads like a personal mini-essay -- also needs trimming, etc. I don't have time to do the trimming properly right at the moment -- feel free to give it a try yourself, if you have the time.

 * Well, I've done the trimming -- I think what I left is a good representative sample. If anyone thinks that some other lines would be better, feel free to give it a go. But this subsection was w-a-a-a-y too long before: not only did it pose a copyvio problem, it was also disproportionate in terms of the overall length of the article. Even the part I've left verges on undue emphasis.


 * BTW, I also trimmed a bit from the long paragraph quoted in the preceding section -- mostly to avoid copyvio issues. Cgingold 12:48, 12 July 2007 (UTC)


 * Thank you for making some progress. I haven't had enough time on this to put my thoughts in order. Your edit helps me focus a bit, but it may be another week or so until I get back to it. --rich
