ballooned to 4 trillion by 2004, responding to questioning by
Cynthia Mckinney? Can you deny that Mike Hulme, who worked in the IPCC, admitted that the consensus of climate change was manufactured by 12 kept scientists? (National Post) Can you deny that Robert Capps of Salon reported that the whistleblowers who reported that Dyncorp was involed in child trafficking were vindicated in every way, despite being harassed by DynCorp? Can you deny that DynCorp remains one of the US Govs top contractors in spite of this? These are the issues that Jones covers and he presents copious documentation, both video documentation and press documentation. You imply that he is a conspiracy nut regardless. Just my afforementioned examples should be enough to make you think twice and reconsider the biased article on Jones, but it's your job to make sure the article stays biased and Wiki promotes the official gov. line. This isn't a theory either. It is the only way to account for Knowledge (XXG)'s obstinate refusal to present credible evidence on anything that defies the official lies, while only reporting articles that ridicule dissenters. There are articles for Wiki's precious 'reliable' (read well-funded) sources that give credibility to dissenters, but Wiki selectively ignores these and only prints the hackwork, even if they come from editorials. Wiki prints op-eds published in major media as though they represent anything but the opinion of the writer, and presents that as evidence from a reliable source! So don't come to me with that nonsense about Knowledge (XXG) being fact and evidence based. On sensitive topics, I can ovrwhelm you with evidence that you will refuse to acknowledge because your job is really to push the gov. story. And it's flagrantly obvious.

have most probably stayed on the website of the SPLC, had it not been imported into
Knowledge (XXG). By directly importing opinions from primary sources into articles on Knowledge (XXG) we bestow notability which otherwise might not have happened. This is why in order to import any such commentary into an article it should have been first covered and analysed by external press sources. Doing so would have ensured its notability and relevance. The solution is not to scour the internet for any negative commentary from sources of doubtful notability and then import it into a BLP article. This is a very low threshold of inclusion and it makes a mockery out of our BLP policy. The above flaws only get even more exacerbated if the BLP article links to the reference and the reader upon reading the reference material further, gets introduced to more attacks like "red faced tirades" etc. I think doing so is disingenuous on our part, because although we do not include these remarks in the article, we provide the link to the readers, so in effect we wink and nudge the reader to read the whole article at the external website. If this is what BLP has come to I want no part of it.
1859:'s article lists: Republican (1976 - 1988) followed by Libertarian (1988 Presidential Election) and then Republican (1988 - Present). If some reasonably accurate dates can be discerned from sources, we then might be able to do similar for Alex Jones: Republican (Year of his campaign) and Libertarian (YYYY - Present). However, I don't think there's anything erroneous about the article the way it is. Further characterization of Alex Jones's libertarian views is certainly welcome in the article - I just don't see the reason for the strong push to remove Republican party affiliation from the infobox. I think that running for office on a Republican platform is considerably more notable than whether third parties associate Jones with the libertarian party. Also, keep in mind that not all libertarians are associated with the Libertarian party. Many libertarians who are Ron Paul supporters are not even aware of who the actual Libertarian party candidate was in the 2008 presidential election (contrary to popular belief, it was

Jones continually tries to educate people to what he terms the "left-right paradigm". whether you believe this or not - it is a fact. This needs to be cleared up immediately. It is ANTI encyclopedic. In his own words he "avoids the bogus political labels of āleft and rightā and instead focuses on what really matters ā whatās right and wrong." - he never supports or encourages so-called "right wingers" or "right wing politics" and he "concentrates on destroying the false 'left-right paradigm' " - just look at his websites www.prisonplanet.com and www.infowars.com for what he describes HIMSELF as. THIS IS INCREDIBLY unprofessional to say or imply by others opinions that he is "right wing". Even if repeating what uneducated people have said - it gives the impression to people who don't know Alex Jones that he is. Would it be correct to describe George Bush as a school teacher because he read a book about goats to some school kids and then provide a "SOURCE" with some video of him reading as proof.
1535:. The BLP policy prescribes important directives for editors to follow that make sense for the Wikimedia Foundation's legal matters, however I feel BLP is often invoked as a copout on many BLP articles on controversial figures. Past editors have removed edits that, even when well-sourced, were perceived by them as biased. We must channel the biases from reliable sources, but many editors mistake a source's bias for an editor's bias. Nevertheless, the parts of the article that do characterize Jones's views (such as in the lede) are well-sourced and properly included by saying "described as such and such." One problem is that the article needs more reliable sources. Most of the discourse on Alex Jones is within the realm of news and media, however I have found a few peer-reviewed articles in academic journals that do describe him to a point. Though there are some parts of the article that don't fully encompass Jones, I don't feel like the entire article is a whitewash written by Jones's followers.

could go on and on. Aurthur Rubin could not possibly be this consistently wrong about Jones unless he were running active interference. It requires the active denial of evident facts. It does not matter because anyone who becomes an Alex listener understands that the Web is loaded with interference agents and dupes. The only question is which one Rubin is. Rubin might say that "reliable" (anything prominent he and the rest of the UTC punks call reliable) sources call him a conspiracy theorist, but people with brains and integrity understand that MAINSTREAM does not automatically imply honesty and reliability. More people now get their news from alternative sources and the mainstream is actually dying, giving the lie to this assumption. UTC Wikipedists are virtually the only people who pretend that there is a consensus on the accuracy of the Big Media. The reverse is closer to the truth.

content from the article or distort its meaning. I've already said within this thread that a resolution to this content dispute would be to note a year beside the party name. I gave an example of Ron Paul's article, which lists him as
Republican (1976 - 1988) and then as Libertarian (1988 Presidential Election) and then as Republican (1988 - Present). We could do something similar with Alex Jones, but we need reliable sources regarding Jones' current affiliation (or lack thereof). Then we could put Republican (2000) and _Whatever_ (???? - Present). We just need the reliable sources and relevant dates. Nobody seems willing to have pursued this and I am rather busy at present.

For his father and his claims about ancestral participation in the Civil War (probably a significant chunk of multi-generation Americans have distant ancestors that fought in the Civil War, tbh, so maybe it's not even that notable), Jones could be used as a source for his own claims (preferably a written source and not a video).
