I reverted your edit, because there are a couple of problems. The first is [[WP:SYNTH|improper synthesis]]. You cite a ''Huffington Post'' article to back up with allegation of antisemitism, but the source doesn't even mention Starbucks. You made the following unsupported leap: Starbucks --> Sponsors Morning Joe --> MSNBC also carries Pat Buchanan --> Pat Buchanan is arguably antisemitic --> Starbucks is antisemitic or tolerates antisemitism. The second issue is that for such allegations we need stronger sourcing than an opinion piece in a news blog. Accusing someone or a corporation of antisemitism is a violation of [[WP:BLP]] without watertight sourcing.

Hi Akda18. I appreciate your thinking twice about reverting that edit a second time, and I also appreciate the good faith you showed by trying to improve the edit instead. However, it is not acceptable content to simply give your opinion on why Os Guinness may have ulterior motives. We need the opinion of a reliable source. I am happy to talk about this further with you. --BlueMoonlet (t/c) 19:27, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
I reverted your edit, because there are a couple of problems. The first is improper synthesis. You cite a Huffington Post article to back up with allegation of antisemitism, but the source doesn't even mention Starbucks. You made the following unsupported leap: Starbucks --> Sponsors Morning Joe --> MSNBC also carries Pat Buchanan --> Pat Buchanan is arguably antisemitic --> Starbucks is antisemitic or tolerates antisemitism. The second issue is that for such allegations we need stronger sourcing than an opinion piece in a news blog. Accusing someone or a corporation of antisemitism is a violation of WP:BLP without watertight sourcing. Fences&Windows 22:16, 24 September 2009 (UTC)
