 * I'd need to brush up on my Australian politics to follow it all with more than a glance. Hysterical cartoon... I might have to circle back and take a shot at pulling out some key info. Jjhake (talk) 23:08, 24 August 2023 (UTC)


 * Apparently Coulthart has gotten some criticism in relation to Ben Roberts-Smith: ‘Odd’: TV journalist and ufologist’s secretive report about Ben Roberts-Smith. - LuckyLouie (talk) 13:51, 25 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Wow. Messed up looking. "It is a very odd thing to ask an investigative journalist to go around doing fact finding for a lawyer." To have billionaire backers paying a "star" journalist "to go around doing fact finding for a lawyer" is indeed several layers of odd. Jjhake (talk) 18:03, 25 August 2023 (UTC)

UFOs
There is now more information about UFOs than anything else. Jack Upland (talk) 05:07, 30 August 2023 (UTC)


 * It's not Wikipedia's fault UFOs have been his exclusive focus since 2018. Maybe he discusses things other than UFOs on Coast To Coast AM and Need To Know these days, but I doubt it. The Aussie papers are even satirizing his career as a 'UFO Truther' (see above). His advocacy of UFO conspiracy theory should be mentioned in the article lead. - LuckyLouie (talk) 14:06, 30 August 2023 (UTC)

Rewording/clarification needed on a sentence
This sentence should be reworded to perhaps clarify that Ross stepped in to break up the fight, not engage in it. "In 2014, Coulthart worked as chief investigations reporter for Channel 7's Sunday Night news program but resigned after being involved in "a newsroom brawl"."

This is per that sentence's source article, which clearly states he broke it up, not joined in: "Coulthart stepped in to break up a physical fight between Sunday Night’s executive producer Mark Llewellyn and another producer last month." https://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/entertainment/sydney-confidential/investigative-journalist-ross-coulthart-quits-channel-7s-sunday-night-program-after-newsroom-punchup/news-story/76ce902420f8d761727368390f76ea47

Ross Coulthart himself said the same in the latest episode of NTK at 25 minutes in. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NFvXyOiUiZ0 50.200.118.243 (talk) 08:44, 8 February 2024 (UTC)


 * "In 2014, Coulthart worked as chief investigations reporter for Channel 7's Sunday Night news program but resigned after intervening in "a newsroom brawl"." would work, and avoid detailing a bunch of non-notable gossip. &#45; LuckyLouie (talk) 14:21, 8 February 2024 (UTC)
 * I would not be opposed to that word change. Recommend changing it to include "intervening" for a more balanced take on what happened. 50.200.118.243 (talk) 06:26, 12 February 2024 (UTC)

Jason Colavito blog BRRD
"Author Jason Colavito reviewed Coulthart's book, saying it was "less a serious analysis and more of a book report on the last works of the leaders of the faith". "

IMO this sentence should stay per WP:SPS (author seems reasonably "expert" in context), and WP:BLPSPS, since as written, it's not about Coulthart, it's about his book. Opinions, editors? Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 07:29, 28 February 2024 (UTC)

For clarity, when I commented on the blog in January (above), the article content was different, but I changed it then. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 07:36, 28 February 2024 (UTC)
