Why is this a glowing puff piece?[edit]

Why on earth is this article written to make this man look like the most wonderful music executive who ever lived?

The thing this guy is most known for - in the eyes of the public - is the allegations of inappropriate behaviour and abuse.

Newspapers have covered the abuse allegations for months. Now we have the Australian national broadcaster, the ABC, running a full current affairs documentary dedicated to these abuse allegations. Yet this Wikipedia article remains a puff piece.

The abuse allegations should be in the introduction, and should also be in a dedicated section. It can be worded in terms of what the broadcasters and newspapers have said about him. Lester 02:01, 11 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I disagree with this being a dedicated section, in my opinion these allegations are related wholly to his career (the culture he fostered as Sony) and should be a subsection of that. Further, the existing article probably needs to be checked for bias as I am (perhaps wrongly) detecting quite a lot of it from the above comment.Abacrombi (talk) 06:00, 7 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
