diplomatic immunity

Strauss-Kahn entitled to diplomatic immunity? [1]

DSK PR article

This article is incredibly biased and presents a positive view of a man with incredible moral failings. Who wrote this article? His PR team? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 41.243.82.18 (talk) 09:46, 29 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Family

Given that no one disputes a sexual encounter of some kind took place in the New York hotel (notwithstanding disagreements about consent), are his wife and daughters just fine with all this or what? The article needs to flesh the personal life section out slightly (a sentence or two would do fine) to resolve the question in the reader's mind of what the consequences of the encounter were for DSK.

Our articles are based on published reliable sources - not speculation. If one discounts tabloid tittle-tattle (which we do), there doesn't appear to have been much published on the question, as far as I'm aware - not that it is really encyclopaedic material anyway.

Obviously I'm not asking for speculation. While I'm no fan of prurient tabloid stuff either, I do think this would be encyclopaedic, given the highly public nature of the whole affair. I mean, if it's considered relevant to mention the name of his wife and that he has four daughters at all, it must be relevant to mention any reaction they are known to have had to the event that has made DSK more famous around the world than anything else he has ever done. Credulity (talk) 18:29, 30 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Can I suggest that you see if you can find suitable sources for this, and then we can discuss what, if anything, needs to be added to the article? Without actually seeing what such sources say, this discussion isn't going to get us far. 18:38, 30 July 2012 (UTC)
As far as I have observed none of his daughters or his now estranged wife have ever commented on the 'incident' in New York or what else was revealed about DSK's 'lifestyle'. His daughters may have children, so there's a big reason not to comment and attract attention to yourself that you are indeed the daughter of a man who has been ridiculed worldwide and despised in those quarters where (mostly women) people do not appreciate men thinking they are butterflies. His 'private' life cost him his job and his marriage, and wherever he now goes he'll be the one .... When people do not comment at all on something, I interpret that as they haven't got anything positive to say. His involvement in the elf Aquitaine/Leuna-Minol/Mitterrand/Kohl thing would actually be a lot more interesting than what his daughters think, not much to crow about I reckon. 144.136.192.32 (talk) 06:30, 10 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
