You might be better off talking to Wikinewsies than
Wikipedians
considering Wikinews already does allow discussion about the topic (as
opposed to discussion about the article).
<http://en.wikinews.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3AAllPages&from=&to=&namespace=102>
shows pages from their comment namespace, which is used for non-NPOV
chat not related to improving the article.
There's more information on it here:

Something like this would be tempting for Wikipedia articles, but it'd
be a BLP and confidential info nightmare on anything controversial ...
