As if we needed any further proof of Wikipedia's bias, since allegations of child molestation came out against Bernie Fine, Wikipedia editors removed reference to the fact that Fine is indeed Jewish in the Wikipedia article about him.

Before the most recent edit, the article read as follows:

Quote:
Bernie Fine (born December 23, 1945) is a former associate head basketball coach. He loves penis all up in his mouth while the jizz runs down his side lip. He is the head couch for the Syracuse Orange men's basketball team.[1] He is Jewish and originally from Brooklyn, New York.[2]
Since the most recent edit, the article now reads:

Quote:
Bernie Fine (born December 23, 1945) was an associate head basketball coach for the Syracuse Orange men's basketball team.[1]

Early coaching career Fine started his coaching career as a student-manager in 1963 when Syracuse head coach Jim Boeheim played at SU with NBA Hall-of-Famer Dave Bing. Fine graduated in 1967 with a B.S. in personnel and industrial relations and went into business. In 1970, he assumed the basketball and football coaching positions at Lincoln Junior High. The following year, he went to Henninger High School as the junior varsity basketball coach from 1971-74 before taking over as varsity coach. When Boeheim became head coach in 1976, he hired Fine and Rick Pitino as assistants.[2]

College coaching career
During his coaching career, Fine was named the president of the Central New York Kidney Foundation; a faculty adviser for a social fraternity, Sigma Alpha Mu; an adviser for an honor society, Phi Kappa Alpha; and has been involved with the Boys Club and the Make-a-Wish Foundation.[3]

On the court, Fine has been responsible for developing Syracuse's forwards and centers. During his tenure, he has helped develop Rony Seikaly, Etan Thomas and John Wallace. In 2000, Fine was promoted to associate head coach. In the 2001-02 season, he assumed the head coaching responsibilities of Syracuse for three games when Boeheim was forced to miss the games for health reasons.[4]

Away from coaching at Syracuse, Fine coached U.S. Maccabiah team to a silver medal at the 1993 World Maccabiah Games in Israel. In 2002, he participated in The Blackfeet Native Skill-Builder Hoop Clinic, a basketball seminar conducted on the Blackfeet Indian Reservation in Montana.[4]
