Controversies section

There is a controversies section which is tagged as potentially compromising the neutrality of the article.

The source for the "eastern seaboard" claim from 2001 is broken. This story is disputed https://metro.co.uk/2010/09/13/kay-burley-i-was-surprised-to-see-peter-andre-cry-510520/ https://www.pressgazette.co.uk/if-i-didnt-have-skin-rhino-i-might-be-offended-why-kay-burley-wont-let-trolls-bring-her-down/

Including a story about her tweeting a picture of a sad dog is simply laughable, I'm sorry but nobody can consider that encyclopedic or having any lasting relevance at all.

A blip in an interview in which the interviewer says something which is not accurate is not a controversy like an interviewer being offensive or lying.

But sure, undo me removing these stories, with no edit summary.

I've done my part of the WP:BRD. Unknown Temptation (talk) 22:33, 9 December 2020 (UTC)

I added the controversy section tag, because WP:CSECTION says that this is not good writing style. It's interesting that when asked about the eastern seaboard quote in the Metro article, she said "Don’t believe everything you read on Wikipedia, it also said I breastfed live on air." In the Press Gazette interview, she says "I would like to see where that quote is, wouldn’t you? I think that’s what you call an urban myth." As for the seaboard quote, this is in the article because reliable sources reported her as saying it, eg here in The Independent on 28 December 2001. I don't know if she did say this, but if it is wrong it isn't Wikipedia's fault as long as the mainstream media got it wrong first. Short of finding a YouTube clip where she says it (which I can't find), it's hard to say with 100% certainty whether she did or didn't say it.--♦IanMacM♦ ^{(talk to me)} 16:31, 10 December 2020 (UTC)

Why was there a blunder in saying she's irish 64.43.8.233 (talk) 12:38, 17 March 2022 (UTC)

Retirement

Kay Burley responds to report she's leaving Sky News Breakfast Show after five years: (Published December 16, 2024 8:01pm) She said it wasn't true. Martinevans123 (talk) 10:23, 5 February 2025 (UTC)

It's currently a breaking news story. She says that she is leaving Sky News, but like Frank Sinatra, retirements may not be permanent and absolute.--♦IanMacM♦ ^{(talk to me)} 10:28, 5 February 2025 (UTC)

That source says: "However, she has since shut down the claim, explaining that she’s going to be taking a break this month before returning in January." Martinevans123 (talk) 10:29, 5 February 2025 (UTC)

Now seems to be widely reported. Martinevans123 (talk) 12:06, 5 February 2025 (UTC)
