Untitled[edit]

Wow. I check in on this page every now and then since I started it, and this addition sounds like a hit piece. Shall I put a link to a Reader article in the SD:U-T page about the 'generous' contributions of the Copley family to Mayor Sanders, and the downsizing of the news staff while David Copley throws lavish yacht parties?

Also I'm quite sure that the personal viewpoint of a newspaper's editor belongs on that editor's page, not the paper's page, since it's irrelevant. Going to remove the section and reference. FireballX301 (talk) 07:43, 16 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Removed the following:

" Because of the weekly's success, editor and publisher Jim Holman, a conservative Catholic who also publishes the online California Catholic Daily, has spent more than $5 million of his own money on three separate ballot measures (Props. 73, 85 and 4) that would require a doctor to notify the parents of a minor female before performing an abortion. The most recent measure, Prop. 4, which would have amended the state constitution, was defeated 52 percent to 48 percent on Nov. 4, 2008. "

Belongs on a 'Jim Holman' page, not pertinent to the San Diego reader itself, as per my prior comment roughly a year ago FireballX301 (talk) 21:00, 9 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Mutilation of this page by convicted Antifa felons and/or their associates.[edit]

Twelve members of Antifa have been recently convicted in San Diego for "conspiracy to riot", severely beating a number of innocent bystanders, including a 17-year old school boy, trying to burn down a police substation and other crimes. Because the San Diego Reader covered this story, Antifa or Antifa sympathizers have retaliated by essentially mutilating the Reader's Wikipedia page. They also defamed the victims of the attack by Antifa as "white supremacists" without any valid references that they actually are white supremacists, which they deny. The Antifa riot was in Pacific Beach, a neighborhood of San Diego, on Jan 9, 2021.

They also exposed the name of one of the Readers reporters who covered the Antifa trial. This Reporter has covered local crimes for many years, including many violent crimes. Antifa is using Wikipedia to "dox" her and expose her to retaliation by the violent criminals that she has covered over the years, as well as those recently convicted, violent Antifa members that she covered. Reportedly, she has received threats of violence for her coverage of the Antifa trial.

Whoever is making these changes is putting Wikipedia at great risk of multiple lawsuits for defamation and other reasons. I suggest that you reverse the changes and restore the page as it was, before the page mutilation and the doxing of the Reporter occurred. Also suggest you not allow any other edits that reference this contentious, political Antifa trial or allow the name of this reporter to be exposed again. This page should just be about the Reader, generally as a business, not a tool of retaliation for those angry about a couple of news articles out of the many tens of thousands that the San Diego Reader has produced over the last 50 years. Also, suggest that you block those, who have been making these changes, from editing this page again. 162.197.6.47 (talk) 05:36, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
