I've come across a report of a 7-year old pool player who's winning in tournaments against adults and who's also able to perform several pool trick shots. It wouldn't make for an incredibly large article, but I'd like to get a general feel about what most people feel about such an article.
Would it make any difference if I first saw him in "Ripley's Believe it or Not"? I hope not, as I'm sure I can find other sources.
It doesnt sound very interesting to me. I think what you have said above is about all that can be said. But maybe thats differing interests.
If he appeared on Ripley's Believe it or not, there presumably _is_ more that can be said, even if it might not be interesting to you. Unless of course he appeared in a _very_ short segment.
I cant tell - I have no idea what Ripley's Believe it or not is. I guess we have an article on it somewhere though...
Assuming its a TV program, their research standards may not be high. I would want other sources.
And a seven year old being talanted is hardly news round here is it?
