Text and/or other creative content from this version of God TV was copied or moved into GOD TV with this edit on June 21 2010. The former page's history now serves to provide attribution for that content in the latter page, and it must not be deleted as long as the latter page exists.

Encyclopeadia's should not contain weasel words

The God Channel has attracted criticism from some commentators; television satirist and critic Victor Lewis-Smith described it as "hour upon hour of hate-filled, rabble-rousing, homophobic bigotry, much of it featuring (and funded by) right-wing American evangelists" [1].

I moved the above from the article as it is factually incorrect to have in an encyclopaedia17:25, 23 February 2007 (UTC)Halesowen

I've reverted your changes because the text you have deleted is not "factually incorrect" as it is a published statement properly attributed to the source. Further, please go reread WP:AWW, the Wikipedia style guideline regarding "weasel words." Attribution of a source of a critical statement is not the use of "weasel words." Mike Doughney 19:16, 23 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I can only reaffirm what Mike said above. "Weasel words" do not mean what you think they do, read the linked article. Lewis-Smith is a noted commentator, and his opinion was presented as that of a third party. Fourohfour 13:45, 25 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I've restored this quotation again, and placed it under a new Criticism heading. Made a few other changes to partially address the "content that is written like an advertisement" banner. Jno.skinner (talk) 22:19, 8 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Correction to first line

Hello, GOD TV is not a "Word of Faith" media network. It is an ecumenical media network sourcing Christian content from multiple expressions of the Christian faith.

Is there anything specific that needs to be added or updated to correct this? Does the current leadership need to make a statement to correct this? 86.185.232.237 (talk) 12:48, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
