::: Gossip may well be verifiability.  I don't think it is unreliability of information that makes it gossip.  The National Enquirer is reviewed each week by high-powered attorneys, but it is still rightly scorned.  So why isn't Wikipedia treated in the same light?  It should be.

::: The Totenberg entry says, "She married H. David Reines, a trauma physician, in 2000. On their honeymoon, he treated her for severe injuries after she was hit by a boat propeller while swimming."  Since medical records are considered highly confidential, I'm skeptical that claim is verifiable.  I clicked the "reference" for it on Wikipedia and it is a "Site Error."  There are many such "references" on Wikipedia.  --[[User:Aschlafly|Aschlafly]] 21:24, 7 January 2007 (EST)
