"Black Ice"[edit]

I removed the bit referencing LeBron James producing a documentary called "Black Ice." [1] While the documentary is supposed to mention the Colored Hockey League, and it's quite possible Fosty's work will play a part in it, the citation doesn't actually say so: Fosty is not mentioned at all, and neither is his book.

Television interview stated it was based on the book Black Ice: The History of the Colored Hockey League. This implies it is. Plus it has the same name. [2]

  • The citation does not state it, which is all that matters. You may be unaware of the rules governing WP:BLP, but they have a very strict standard of accuracy, and all facts MUST be concretely supported by reliable, independent sources or they are liable to be removed without further warning.
