Untitled[edit]

This was moved here from the New York Morning Journal because that article was basically a biography. Should probably add some sort of disambig, but I'll leave it to people more knowledgeable about biographies as to which article should go on top.

The article is heavily POV, for instance the following quotes, "Mr. Hearst was a man who always got what he wanted, usually by means of his endless supply of money. " "While running this newspaper, Mr. Hearst was legendary for saying that he determined what the people would think and that he created the news." "Hearst was famously quoted as saying "You provide the pictures, I'll provide the war."" "This movie, acclaimed by many to be the greatest movie ever made, receieved violent opposition from Mr. Hearst" "Orson Welles, was so effectively blacklisted " "Renting or purchasing this movie is strongly recommended"

We need to fix this, people[edit]

What a trainwreck of a page. A single page about two very different people! And biased text was dumped on a non-Talk page... --NightMonkey 08:06, Apr 3, 2005 (UTC)

I've moved the first William Hearst to his own article - William Hearst (Ontario Premier). The second, with all the POV issues, already had an article (William Randolph Hearst) with all the info and NPOV so I've just scrubbed the rest and turned this into a disambig.
