Tax evasion

More is needed on his tax evasion conviction, which is mentioned in passing in a "JNS" article, and more in general on controversies. The problem is a lack of reliable sourcing, as he has mainly been covered in blogs. We had a "criticism" section that contained close paraphrases from the JNS article and also seemed UNDUE.

Added from a primary source. I see there is a paid editor working on this article. If he is truly interested in building an encyclopedia, as paid editors always claim, the way to do it is to suggest sources that deal with his criminal convinction, which is underweighted in the article due to lack of sourcing.

The following text was recently added to the lead of the article:

The Lobby – USA, a censored Al-Jazeera documentary about the Israeli lobby in the USA, features hidden camera footage of Eric Gallagher claiming that Milstein funds The Israel Project, as well as Canary Mission.

The text in question was added via these edits, sourced to Electronic Intifada and Haaretz. Should this text be removed? Figureofnine (talk • contribs) 12:07, 11 September 2018 (UTC)

Survey

Yes per WP:UNDUE, WP:V, WP:REDFLAG and WP:BLP. EI is not a reliable source. Our policies require better sourcing for contentious material in biographies of living persons. The phrasing of the addition is POV ("censored") and the placement in the lead is UNDUE. Figureofnine (talk • contribs) 12:07, 11 September 2018 (UTC)
Yes (Remove). Clearly UNDUE. No reliable source - EI is not a RS. Haaretz is claiming he is mentioned in an AJ doco that was canned and never published by AJ (a strong indication the doco failed AJ's editorial process). Definitely not lede worthy, and UNDUE all together - besodes failing sourcing per BLP policy.Icewhiz (talk) 13:14, 11 September 2018 (UTC)
