Conflicting, or at a minimum, disjointed statements to resolve[edit]
The end of Friedman's experience teaching at UW-Madison is cast in two different lights, in two sections. In Public Service, the article asserts that he left Madison due to antisemitism. In Academic Career: Early Years, Friedman left as a result of differing opinions on US involvement in World War II. These are incongruent, as far as I can tell.

both influences were at work and two sides of same coin. , antisemitism was silent and pro/anti-war was noisy. they are locked together (antisemites in those days were anti-war, Jews like Friedman were accused of being unamerican warmongers) Rjensen (talk) 13:13, 14 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I really wonder how this article received the "good article" mark. Granted, this article has a good amount of references and citations, but it is completely one-sided in its presentation of Friedman's ideas. There is hardly any criticism - of which there is plenty - of his economical thought and theories. How is this possible? It seems this article has been made primarily by Friedman's supporters and admirers. GoneWithThePuffery (talk) 21:26, 2 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
level-4 vital article is rated GA-class on Wikipedia's content assessment scale.
