Please note that that the New York Times is not the only source for this article. I think Heard's congressional testimony is a legitimate source for the ultimate fate of Durstine's firm. 121a0012 (talk) 08:25, 23 March 2022 (UTC)
- Yes, certainly NYTimes is not the only source. I submit "shortly before death" is conjecture because Durstine died in 1962 and Heard's testimony is dated 1964. Congressional testimony source does not state date when Heard became president of Roy S. Durstine. It is possible that Mr. Heard became president of Roy S. Durstine after Mr. Durstine's death. I located 2 additional sources I will add; NYHerald Tribune and Ad Age stating Mr. Durstine was president of his own agency at his death. Simplefinder33 (talk) 11:14, 23 March 2022 (UTC)
Also, I did not think Wikipedia is a brevity contest and prefer language that is more self-explanatory. 121a0012 (talk) 08:27, 23 March 2022 (UTC)
- I hear you. Length is compatible with goals of Wikipedia; trimming to make room for more facts is essential and more people will read it . Simplefinder33 (talk) 11:28, 23 March 2022 (UTC)
