I don't think Shales was born in 1944. This would make him 63 years old--he certainly looks younger. I have heard that he is rather ambiguous about stating his age. Additionally, the article states he graduated from AU at the age of 29, which also doesn't entirely make sense. 74.73.86.22221:26, 10 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I heard Shales criticized another critic for "outing" the recently deceased Merv Griffin. Tom Shales, in turn, was accused by gay groups of hypocrisy (supposedly Shales is gay). I wondered if someone could add something about this, as well as some of Tom Shales views regarding some popular shows. I think that would help readers to know more about Shales place in american culture. 72.78.251.24007:54, 26 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
