Notability

This charge that he is non-notable is an utterly spurious charge.

His professional involvement in writing (in the Village Voice and other publications) on public officials is of far greater long term consequence than the friviolities of insubtantial media celebrities like Britney Spears, Lindsay Lohan, Paris Hilton, who have biographical articles that do not get such a charge.

He has been publishing investigative journalism and has written published books for twenty years.Dogru144 22:50, 2 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Travel writings

Is he the same person who has written several travel titles on northeastern US and eastern Canada? Dogru144 23:29, 2 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Bio information lacking

Bio information about Barrett is sorely lacking. When and where born? Educated? Married? Other children? Other jobs? His own jacket blurbs don't say much. Someone needs to do investigative research on him. Wasted Time R 11:31, 13 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Trump topic

Needs major expansion, imo.Wikipietime (talk) 15:35, 11 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

To add to article

To add to this article (since he died of lung cancer): was he a long-time cigarette smoker? 98.123.38.211 (talk) 22:31, 30 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
