Keep - Meets GNG. Looking at google books, google news, and the google news archives, he seems to be more of an activist-journalist and to be involved in a number of stories. I'd say the answer isn't deletion, but rather improvement. Smmurphy^(Talk) 17:39, 8 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Keep the article probably should be stubbed until it can be re-written but the TV interviews are good enough to get him past GNG, particularly considering the region he works in. Jbh ^Talk 20:41, 8 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
