Balance
[edit]The article would profit from expansion, and a more balanced content. Surely the published criticisms of her pieces are more nuanced than is indicated here, and that needs to be addressed, without blanking the page. 76.248.147.81 (talk) 04:00, 21 June 2011 (UTC)
- Re: expansion, I heartily agree. But if you look at the sources cited for the reaction to her Game of Thrones review, I think the article summarizes them and reflects their tone pretty well. (It was quite the tempest in a teapot.) That said, I'm sure that there have been more positive reactions to her criticism somewhere... I just haven't found them. --Josiah Rowe (talk • contribs) 05:41, 22 July 2011 (UTC)
Is it possible she's just a poor journalist? Not everyone is capable of being objective and insightful. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.111.69.37 (talk) 23:53, 23 October 2011 (UTC)
- It is possible she is a poor journalist. Considering she worked for the Times and now the NY Times, it is not probable. 69.181.143.45 (talk) 22:04, 9 February 2014 (UTC)
The problem with the neutrality of this article is, as often the case, what is left in and what is left out: a two paragraph profile of a journalist and one paragraph devoted criticizing her for an ostensible "superficial treatment of gender issues?" — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mhjrd (talk • contribs) 01:08, 3 November 2014 (UTC) However shallow or wrongheaded Bellefante may have been in the past, anyone who had read her Big City columns over the last year or so would find that she has become one of the Times' most intelligent and perceptive analysts of urban issues; her columns offer far more than the conventional wisdom. ˜˜˜˜
Re-upping this. This article has serious WP:BALANCE issues. Will work on adding more of content but this could be in need of trimming excessive details from the criticism. ModerateMike729 (talk) 17:44, 1 November 2018 (UTC)
