Is he Jewish?

I can't find any documented source. If so then it should be added to the category section

Great question. Please add this information. 202.29.57.215 (talk) 23:20, 1 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Fawning Over David Muir

I have no axe to grind with David Muir. But when I saw this entry this evening, I couldn't believe how unprofessional, fawning, and poorly written this piece was. I attempted to make this a little bit more objective, but I think it may need more work. Asc85 (talk) 23:17, 24 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Couldn't agree more. It reads like a press release from his publicist. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ron Thompson (talk • contribs) 02:12, 10 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Great job, David Muir. 10-28-16 Cynthia E. Van Dyke-Melchor (talk) 21:04, 28 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

This article uses a picture that doesn't show his face

This picture used in the infobox is side profile. —Mythdon (talk • contribs) 00:00, 13 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Bumping this after the debate, it would be nice to have a proper front view of Mr. Muirs face and not the back-right side of his head Blackholes128 (talk) 20:14, 11 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Debate debacle

Where is the section about his stellar performance as a moderator in the debate debacle? Oh, this is Wikipedia. I'll wait. 32.209.69.24 (talk) 21:38, 13 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

A paragraph about the debate has been added. Dingers5Days (talk) 15:44, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Bias

There is no mention of the extreme left bias during Muir's "moderation" of the debate. It was Harris, Muir and Linsey Davis vs. Trump. 172.0.231.177 (talk) 18:52, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please find reliable sources indicating this view, and it can certainly be added. Joyous! Noise! 21:36, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
