Talk:Salman Rushdie
"but Reagan joined many others in expressing the view that Rushdie must have known what he was getting in to when he wrote the book"
Is this true? The reference doesn't support it, and I couldn't find any other source for the claim.
He should get a pic. Here's the Wikicommons category.205.189.194.208 (talk) 19:01, 18 September 2010 (UTC)
[edit] Conspiracies
I don't have any sources right off the bat, but there were a lot of "Rushdie is dead", "Rushdie was kidnapped", "Rushdie is in hiding" style conspiracies (a la Elvis Presley, Jimmy Hoffa, etc.) Seems like these would be appropriate here, given that he's pretty much been in New York City ever since his fatwas were incurred. -- Seth Peck (talk) 20:00, 17 September 2012 (UTC)
[edit] Fatwa vs. Bounty
I've tidied up (I think) some of the section on the issuing of the fatwa. I think other groups have offered bounties on him so I'll try and add more of that later. Also, if you haven't read any Rushdie you should.:)--SpecialFFrog (talk) 14:19, 9 March 2015 (UTC)
