Shaq Vs. Controversy[edit]
The original article says this:
The Washington Post has pointed out similarities to the ABC show Shaq Vs. and Gallagher's book saying the book and the show have "precisely the same premise" and are that a TV show based on the book Gallagher was trying to sell was "the exact same show."[26] http://voices.washingtonpost.com/dcsportsbog/2009/07/shaq_denied_entrance_by_the_wh.html Gallagher appeared as a producer in both seasons of the show.
This is accurate but it was not a controversy. It was just a parenthetical statement in a Washington Post article that wasn't about Gallagher or his book. It might have justifiably upset Gallagher but I don't think it belongs in his Wikipedia bio. (Ganacka (talk) 19:39, 30 August 2010 (UTC))
Social scientist categorization[edit]
I have removed "social scientist" from the list of occupations describing Gallagher. A social scientist is an academic who conducts scientific studies. I can't find any evidence that this is an accurate representation of Todd Gallagher who is a journalist. Ganacka (talk) 00:07, 14 January 2011 (UTC)
Social Scientist is not purely an academic designation. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wikicorrect7 (talk • contribs) 07:53, 26 January 2011 (UTC)
