→Relative merits of Allende and Pinochet: CNN as a source
:These are strong allegations and should be properly sourced. It's one thing to write light-heartedly about Lucy in [[Narnia]], where a misquotation is inconsequential. It's another thing to endorse a murder charge without even a citation to a court verdict. There is also the matter of [[double standard]]s regarding [[human rights]]. --[[User:Ed Poor|Ed Poor]] 13:46, 13 April 2007 (EDT)

==Reverted citations==
This citation has been removed for two reasons given below,
:''lead by [[Augusto Pinochet]]. <ref>[http://edition.cnn.com/SPECIALS/cold.war/kbank/profiles/allende/]</ref> He followed [[Eduardo Frei Montalva]].''
<references/>
Reasons for reversion: (1) no where in the cited CNN link does the name "Pinochet" appear to support the statement "lead by [[Augusto Pinochet]]"; (2) a citation to CNN is highly suspect, in that CNN '''did not''' exist in 1973. Yes, I recognize this '''does not''' come from CNN Archives. Nevertheless, CNN Archives has extenisve material on [[Watergate]], and CNN '''did not''' exist at the time of Watergate. Hence this organization has gambled away some of its own credibility on historical reporting and all citations to it are suspect. [[User:RobS|RobS]] 13:53, 13 April 2007 (EDT)
