[edit] Merge Pew Research Center into this article?

If anyone's out there, let's vote. --RobbyPrather 00:51, 7 November 2005 (UTC)

  • No, don't merge... this is important but it's a division that should be seen by interested readers in its own right, not as a part of the trust... which, honestly few probably care about. I think this article is more important even though it is a natural sub-article. So give it a section in the trust article. gren グレン 22:22, 3 December 2005 (UTC)
  • No. don't merge the PRC into the Trusts article. The Research Center article has the potential to list various surveys, etc, that would better serve wikipedia by being on that article. And, while I'm at it, expand both. -Tim Rhymeless (Er...let's shimmy) 06:16, 2 January 2006 (UTC).
  • No. Pew Research is an independent organization, not technically a subsidiary, though de facto. Further, Pew Research is the only arm of Pew's advocacy empire which even claims to be non-advocacy (despite failing at this), and so deserves special treatment. --76.209.59.227 06:39, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] "Liberal"?

The one source cited that PCT was an Opinion/Editorial Piece by Martin Wooster, whose opinion appears to be that major philanthropic trusts are mostly "liberal." I searched for a non-obviously-biased opinion upon this, and was unable to find anything. Anyone have any other sources? Safety Cap 21:47, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Whitewash of pro-felon policies

Someone tried to put the well-documented failure of Pew's agenda in CT into the memory hole. Sorry folks, we listened to this crowd and three of my neighbors are now dead. Deal with the facts. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.9.141.78 (talk) 15:28, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
