This article needs an extensive re-write. It is framed like an extended, detailed, at times worshipful, biography. The tone is miles from impartial, and the article goes out of its way to praise and defend the subject at all times. I have begun addressing some of these problems but this will take more work from other people if it is to meet quality standards. — Preceding

Television versions
I mentioned this, and it got reversed.
I know the rule on 'original research', which can include mentioning the bloody obvious without an official source.
But I gave one. IMDb is a high-quality reference work, which includes a more informative pay site within it. And it does not allow anyone to just post anything: it is all vetted before being allowed. So my work qualified.--

I have a much more reliable source but I believe the reference needs to be made on the Perry Mason (2020) page not the McPherson page.

Their is the Sutton quote on 221 of his book, then again page 324 referencing the sources Sutton got it from, IE Bridal Call magazines dated mid -1930's page 221 "the powerful political movements that are sweeping the shores of Europe as a whole seem completly anti-Christian in every respect" "Unlike a few more radical fundamentalists , who leaned toward fascism, McPherson believed that fascism and communism represented two equally deplorable ideologies. Communists attempted to rule without God, while fascism sinned by claiming to represent the power of God. At a time when world turmoil signaled to Pentecostals that the Antichrist lurked on the horizon, McPherson began to integrate politics more explicitly into her sermons and writings. Christians who dodged political issues , she believed were simply misguided. For a nation in peril, only a spiritual renewal linked with a return to the traditions that had supposedly made American great could restrain the forces of the apocalypse."

Deploring fascism is not the same as active anti-fascism. This does not show reliable sources commonly and consistently describing her as an anti-fascist.

Paragraph on Romani
The paragraph on Romani is condescending and stereotypical.
Specifically, the statement “Romani in the US were largely unreached by Christianity. The infusion of crosses and other symbols of Christianity alongside Romani astrology charts and crystal balls was the result of McPherson's influence” is inaccurate. Most Romani immigrants at that time were Christian and even Pentecostal, and it is unlikely that the use of Christian symbols was the “result of McPherson’s influence”

These statements are not supported by the cited Blumhofer source. Unfortunately, the pages in the Epstein source cited in that sentence are omitted from Google books, so it's too early to tell. In order to change it to what you suggest, we would need access to those pages and also some sort of
WP:RS to verify with. I hope that helps.
