Fails GNG and JOURNALIST, in terms of notability. He's just an on-air journalist (as was I) for TV stations that do not have national reach or significance. Kiteinthewind  Leave a message! 20:51, 24 December 2017 (UTC)

 * Keep I'm finding a lot of substantial independent coverage about this television personality referred to as a "fixture" of Boston television news, a "long-time" anchor, and influential leader in the Gay community. Boston is not a small market. FloridaArmy (talk) 00:09, 27 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Boston is also one of 200+ television markets in the country, which means being a "fixture" of Boston TV news means nothing elsewhere. That speaks nothing to notability. Also, being a "leader of the Gay Community" is rather vague. Which gay community? Is he Chad Griffin? Is he Cleve Jones? Is he Adam Bouska? How much of that was station hype and PR?

 * The sources discuss his role in Gay community. And he's not covered in some local community paper but covered extensively over many years in major papers in a major U.S. City. The leaders of Latvia means nothing to people in Omaha but we still include articles on them because they are notable. This guy is notable for Orlando and surrounsing areas where he's made an impact that's been reported on extensively as a reporter, Jack Kerouac preservstionist, and role model in the Gay community.

 * Keep Price is the first openly gay television news anchor from United States, sufficient to keep notability. Genome$100 (talk) 08:37, 27 December 2017 (UTC) Striking per WP:SOCKSTRIKE --Malcolmxl5 (talk) 02:40, 9 January 2018 (UTC)
 * That claim originated from a station Price once worked in, and appears to be repeated by Towleroad. In any case, Towleroad is not a reliable source, IMO, because it does not report objectively. I don't think a PR stunt claim by a station is a ticket to notability. Kiteinthewind  Leave a message! 20:19, 27 December 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete -- an unremarkable TV newscaster with no indications of notability or significance. A promotional CV, basically. K.e.coffman (talk) 04:33, 13 January 2018 (UTC)
