ADD primary education: Brentwood Town and Country School

[edit]

"She received her primary and secondary education at the Brentwood Town and Country School in Los Angeles, CA; the Greenwich Academy in Greenwich, CT; and the Emma Willard School in Troy, NY. She attended Vassar College from 1955-1957, through her sophomore year."[1] 2601:646:201:57F0:1A62:3BA7:6AFB:AF44 (talk) 01:36, 4 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hanoi rumors

[edit]

In the "Visit to Hanoi" section, the final sentences of the third paragraph:

"Her visits to the POW camp led to persistent and exaggerated rumors which were repeated widely, and continued to circulate on the Internet decades later. Fonda, as well as the named POWs, have denied the rumors, and subsequent interviews with the POWs showed these allegations to be false—the persons named had never met Fonda."

Wouldn't it be helpful to state what the rumors and allegations were? 2600:1700:B280:B1C0:315A:47E7:51DA:B2D2 (talk) 10:40, 13 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

We have the worst of both worlds here, we have hand-wavy statements about something, but Wikipedia also doesn't repeat gossip or libelous allegations against living people. Acroterion (talk) 13:09, 13 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Since it is well-sourced, including, but not solely, by Fonda herself, I've added a brief summary of the alleged coercion by the North Vietnamese of prisoners to meet Fonda - which never happened. Fonda also was falsely accused of passing notes that prisoners had written to the Vietnamese, which also did not happen, but that's harder to integrate and is farther into the realm of rumor and libel (and has been extensively debunked).
