The article states that Brian Lehrer is "American Jewish." Can someone provide a citation for this? My understanding is that he is American. His heritage may be Jewish, but that would make him a Jewish American.

Also, should we start adding heritage to other talk radio hosts' articles? It seems unnecessary to me.

I suggest the article be changed to "Brian Lehrer is an American radio talk show host for New York City's WNYC, a public radio station."

Just added the image of Brian Lehrer. This page needs some work, too much POV/OR and to little detail on his background. I'm addicted to his show btw, it's like crack.--Jersey Devil 06:26, 18 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

There seems to be alot of content in this article taken directly from here, this is a copyright violation. To editors seeing this, please do not directly copy and paste info from other sites. Thank you.--Jersey Devil 07:02, 18 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Brian, and his show are very popular in new york-- i feel this article is missing something important without some information about his impact on the community and the size of his following. Maybe there are some ratings that could be quoted? This is just from my experience but all my friends listen to his show, and praise him for his even-handedness, and things that get talked about on his show become the subject of much talk across a wide swath of NYC society.... well at least artsy well educated new yorkers-- but that's a lot of people. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.86.138.219 (talk) 15:05, 11 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

See http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?limit=50&title=Special%3AContributions&contribs=user&target=146.95.224.112&namespace=&year=&month=-1 -- I think one of his kids (or one of their friends) goes to HCHS and was having a little too much fun vandalizing pages. mr_Handy 00:36, 15 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Content copied from WNYC?

I was adding stuff for this article when I noticed parts of the article were possibly taken from this page about Brian Lehrer. What should I do? --Blue387 (talk) 06:29, 9 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
