August 2023: Work in Progress[edit]
I have recreated this article by greatly expanding an old version of The Free Press (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views), but have not yet spent the time to find independent sources for many of the facts I added. If anyone can help, please, please do so.
BTW, creating this article takes care of a redlink in the Free Press disambiguation page.
Full disclosure: I am a subscriber to this publication. Cheers, CWC 10:29, 28 August 2023 (UTC)
History subsection[edit]
Noting that the latter half of the History section contained similar information about things the FP has published, I thought a subsection would make navigation easier. I'm not sure whether "Coverage", is the most suitable term for the section name, but I added the section anyway.– St.nerol (talk) 16:49, 13 November 2023 (UTC)
Notability[edit]
There has been a notability-tag on the page for some time now. Here's a WSJ piece that might be helpful to establish notability: [1]. —St.Nerol (talk, contribs) 21:06, 17 December 2023 (UTC)
- Good find. Thanks!
- It would be useful to have at least one more "reliable secondary source" talking about The Free Press. I found an item in The Australian of 4-Mar-2023 titled "How Bari Weiss fought for her own free press", but it's behind a paywall. Would these two articles convincingly demonstrate Notability? What do other editors think? Cheers, CWC 10:27, 19 December 2023 (UTC)
- And now Marquardtika, an experienced user, has removed the notability tag with the comment "the sources here definitely establish WP:GNG". I'm fine with that. CWC 10:02, 30 December 2023 (UTC)
Debate re Sexual Revolution[edit]
We probably should mention the public debate that TFP ran in Los Angeles last September. They sold all 1600 seats in the theater. Possible citations:
