Philip Jacobson
[edit]- ... that war correspondent Philip Jacobson placed bets on horse races while reporting from the battlefield?
- ALT1:...that Philip Jacobson was known in journalistic circles for an eight-hour lunch in which he and a colleague consumed 13 bottles of alcohol and were applauded by the staff on leaving the restaurant?

Article is new and long enough. Well written and cited, and looks to be free of issues. ALT0 hook is good to go; ALT1 is too long and based off unverified (though properly sourced) legends. ALT0 is cited from a paywalled source. Should be good to go using ALT0. Pi.1415926535 (talk) 20:35, 8 February 2018 (UTC)
