Talk:The Steve Wilkos Show

Fair use rationale for Image:Stevewilkos-logo.png

Image:Stevewilkos-logo.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Post Only Serious Matters!!!

there are two posts so far that are just pointless, just like the very first one, if you have a problem with the show, DO NOT POST IT HERE, this is not a forum, where you can go an talk of such matters, the second post is just a waste of time to acknowledge again, post problems with the article, not about the subject, take your insults somewhere else. on that note, i do feel this article needs a criticism section, It has received not only positive reviews, but negative as well, as you can see —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.27.10.1 (talk) 02:07, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

Wow, this show has the fattest heroin addicts on it I've ever seen! I work in drug counselling. Couldn't they have got more realistic actors? Oh, sorry is this considered pointless? FY —Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.217.69.206 (talk) 23:02, 18 July 2008 (UTC)

Criticism

There should be a part of this article that discusses how Steve Wilko's receives criticism and how he answers his hate mail.75.179.153.39 (talk) 05:26, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

NPOV

This "article" is nothing more than a promo for the show. Who wrote this, Wilkos' PR flack? Proxy User (talk) 17:19, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

What do you mean this is nothing more than a promo for the show? I am removing your tag. This article is fair and unbiased and does not in any way skew one way or another. --ChrisP2K5 (talk) 06:51, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

Moron Free TV.

Steve calls his show Moron Free TV when he pans hate mail, so I replaced that instead of saying "You can't watch my show!" twice. Speaking of morons, I move to delete all the crap that is in the discussion page that won't help make this article better. This is not a message board! 75.179.153.39 (talk) 02:42, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

Problems with the Premise

The premise here is written in a completely unencyclopedic way, and doesn't cite any sources. What can we do about this? Does anyone else have this article on their watchlist? SaintCyprian ^Talk 14:00, 7 March 2008 (UTC)

Premise section

I think the "Premise" section is too detailed. Anyone agree?

Re: Criticism

yeah steve is a jerk!

first, he just has his uneducated opinion and doesnt stray even when its obvious he's wrong

secondly, polygraph tests are about as accurate as flipping a coin so his complete faith in their results is ludicrous

third, he's completely irrational

fourth, he's a talkshow host that talks about intellectuals like they're morons and weaklings...talkshows were created to be intellectual forums...why talk if its all emotion? there would be no point.

fifth, he's militant

sixth, none of the child molestors he's ever had on the show have ever had any convictions stick due to lack of evidence...if anything, he's giving them an excuse to declare mistrials becuase of the show infecting jury pools

seventh, he thinks he's doing good but what has he really accomplished?

eighth, aren't we all sick of hearing how great he thinks he is?

ninth, when he talks, its obvious he's a moron...he can't formulate a valid argument and everything that comes out of his mouth is a textbook logical fallacy

tenth, he's just embarrassing those kids of his that he's always ranting about...if the other kids at their school watch the show they're going to know what an idiot their dad is and make fun of them. seriously, they deserve our pity!
