  • Comment: Article is over-reliant upon family history content (not an independent reliable secondary source). Apart from the Broadcasting History profile, there is no significant coverage in reliable sources. One of the other links is broken and the remaining source gives passing mentions, not in-depth coverage. Paul W (talk) 08:55, 9 April 2025 (UTC)
