--KalahariElahi (talk) 21:24, 8 December 2015 (UTC)Please add critical voices to his presentation as journalist. His opinion article from Washington Post https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/polands-disturbing-tilt-to-the-right/2015/11/29/480341e0-952a-11e5-8aa0-5d0946560a97_story.html is in total contradiction to the basic journalistic principles (accuracy, fairness and credibility). The article is nothing short of distorsion of reality. It is extremely manipulative and insulting to the Polish government and the Polish voters, who elected this government. The times are over that every government can be stigamtized as a "dictature" only because it doesn't suit to the mainstream narrative. Spreading of hatred by Diehl is not acceptable! --KalahariElahi (talk) 21:24, 8 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Opinion articles are just that: Opinions. He's allowed to express those opinions in the appropriate forum, which he did. --| Uncle Milty | talk | 21:36, 8 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

--KalahariElahi (talk) 21:34, 9 December 2015 (UTC)Of course, the opinion article is something different than a news story, but objective journalism needs to remain neutral and unbiased regardless of the writers opinion (Wikipedia). If an opinion article is based on lies, it is no longer an opinion article, but just a pamphlet. Or do you think that Julius Streicher was right while expressing his opinions about the Jews in the „Stuermer“ (ritual murderers, child molester etc.)? Diehl supported the invasion of Iraq in the past, repeating the lies about WMD. Now we have total chaos in Iraq and Daesh. Do you still think that he is a responsible opinion editor and that his bias shouldn't be reflected in Wikipedia?--KalahariElahi (talk) 21:34, 9 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
