I wish that news articles would actually cite how they know things

Yep. When I actually started reading some news articles and quickly found out that I was on my own if I want to learn more or verify what I just read, really put me off that stuff.

When I actually post something informative, it seems crazy to not include the links I already have anyway. And make sure it's viewable in the wayback machine if it's something so predictably ephemeral...

Citing sources is a practice that I think is sorely lacking in public discourse currently. I appreciate all efforts to quell misinformation and disinformation.

Rules:

  1. Be civil and nice.
  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.
