Endorsement of NAMBLA?

Conservative talk show hosts are saying scathing and possibly defamatory things about him. They are alleging that he admitted to holding the founder of NAMBLA up as a hero. It is interesting that all we have thus far is a stub article. This is in the news now and is quite newsworthy.

I thought I put this earlier, but maybe I was lacking sleep and didn't, since I cannot find it. I know we can't have any editors around who are against discussing this, and I know that we have no editors who hate mainstream America. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.124.187.76 (talk) 03:42, 11 October 2009 (UTC)

This has already been discussed above. Moreover, few to none of those links are considered reliable sources suitable for use in a Misplaced Pages biographical article. Robofish (talk) 20:50, 11 October 2009 (UTC)
I've redacted this per WP:Talk, WP:Soap and WP:BLP. None of those links would be useful here and this issue has been gone through before. Wait until reliable sources present this information, and no, opinion pages do not count. -- Banjeboi 03:49, 12 October 2009 (UTC)
It seems to me that the slander itself is notable for being, well, slander. 76.21.107.77 (talk) 21:35, 2 March 2015 (UTC)
