Possible NPOV issue
[edit]The fourth reason does not strike me as a neutral description. The source appears biased, as does the reason itself, especially the use of the word "blackmail". Jerdle (talk) 02:33, 2 December 2022 (UTC)
- I agree, upon further inspection of the referenced article, it smacks of impartiality and zero fact checking. Furthermore, Vanity fair has consistently shown to be strongly biased and even fails fact checks, this source doesn't appear to meet Wikipedia's standards for impartial sourcing. Would the standard process be then to simply remove the point unless a better non-biased source is presented?
- I've attached three difference media bias checkers which all conclusively say that Vanity Fair has a strong left bias/emotional attachment which makes this source unreliable, as it itself is not an academic source.
