Talk:Hilary Rosen

I think the role Rosen played in declaring war on the internet for the benefit of capitalist middle-men working to shut down Napster needs to have a far more prominent role in the article introduction. Given the significance of the internet on the world level now and the pioneering role that Napster played on the internet (I think at the time it had over 20 million users), if Rosen dropped dead tomorrow, that would be her most notable life "achievement". The LGBTFGHIJKLMNO promotion stuff, while yes it is part of what she does now and so should be mentioned too, is far less significant than Rosen vs. Napster affair.

Over two years, the Democratic public relations consultant and CNN contributor Hilary Rosen bought more than a half-million fake followers from Devumi. Ms. Rosen previously spent more than a decade as head of the Recording Industry Association of America. In an interview, she described the purchases as “an experiment I did several years ago to see how it worked.” She made more than a dozen purchases of followers from 2015 to 2017, according to company records.

Hilary Rosen, a political commentator and CNN contributor, paid for over a half-million Twitter followers. Many of those accounts have since vanished, but nearly half of her followers — including the fake Jessica Rychly — also follow Mr. Symon.

Hi everyone. My name's John and I am here to disclose that I work for SKDKnickerbocker and would like to submit an edit to this page as a part of my work for the firm. I will not edit the article directly and am seeking others' input and assistance in making this change.

My goals in preparing a new draft is to bring the page up-to-date.

See above for my COI declaration, pledge to make no direct edits, and overall perspective on the current state of this article. I'd like to suggest the following change to the summary section of the page. Below this you'll find the text as it would appear after making the change, followed by the markup itself:

Hilary Rosen (born 1958) is an American communications and political consultant and pundit, former head of the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), founding chair-person of the Time's Up Legal Defense Fund, and current partner at SKDKnickerbocker. She was a columnist for The Washington Post, became the first Washington editor-at-large and political director of The Huffington Post, and has provided political commentary for CNN, CNBC, and MSNBC.

If you agree this is an improvement, I hope you'll consider making the change and marking this request as complete. Of course I'm also willing to answer any questions as needed. Best, User:SKDKDigital

@SKDKDigital: Do you have some sort of source? A press release should be acceptable to make this change, in the circumstances. Sceptre (talk) 18:27, 4 October 2019 (UTC)

This CNN piece names her as a co-founder: ^[1]

  Clarification requested  

• The NWLC source states the following:

  The TIME’S UP Legal Defense Fund is housed and administered by the National Women’s Law Center Fund, LLC. The TIME’S UP Legal Defense Fund was started by women in Hollywood who were moved by the outpouring of support from the Alianza Nacional de Campesinas, a national farmworker women’s organization. These actresses and activists wanted to show solidarity with survivors of sexual harassment, assault, abuse and related retaliation in all industries — especially low-income women and people of color. They worked together in a historic first to design a structure that would be both inclusive and effective. The actresses and advocates collaborated with super lawyers Tina Tchen and Robbie Kaplan, Fatima Goss Graves of the National Women’s Law Center, and communications specialist Hilary Rosen. ^[2]

  That source does not give the status of Ms. Rosen as "founding chairperson". The COI editor's proposal also uses the phrase "co-founder" which is different from the term "founding chairperson". I think at a minimum there needs to be an economy of terms here, with it being decided which term is more appropriate to use based on the sources provided by the COI editor.
• To that end, an ideal source would be one provided from NWLC, which would then solve all of the issues here by stating her role in the founding of this groundbreaking legal fund.^[a] That would allow for the claim to be made in the article. Please advise.
• When ready to proceed with the requested information, kindly change the {{request edit}} template's answer parameter to read from |ans=yes to |ans=no. Thank you!
