Wikipedia's article on the Fellowship of Friends, community edited, quoting a 1996 Los Angeles Times count of about 2,000 members and a 2022 New York Times count of over 1,500 members, more than 600 of them resident at the group's Apollo compound in Oregon House, California. Used here for both counts.
Facts
Assessment
Reliability Tier3
Reliability tier 3: a community edited reference article, used here because the two newspaper reports it quotes, the Los Angeles Times (Jenifer Warren, November 4, 1996) and the New York Times (Cade Metz and Daisuke Wakabayashi, June 16, 2022), both sit behind subscription access. The article names the reporter, outlet and date for each membership count it carries. Citation
