MODERATORS
While I won't be personally holding WhiskeyRiff.com up as an example of journalistic excellence, I've seen similar levels from established newspapers who should know better. At least they owned up to a lack of knowledge, most news outlets would do the quick Google and never mention it, just letting the content of the article demonstrate their lack.of understanding on the topic.
Havent thought of it like this. Thats a fair perspective actually.
My comment is definitely coming from frustration with modern new sites in general. Nothing personal against WhiskeyRiff they simply where a involuntary representative/example of the bigger issue.
Yes, it's all part of the push for "content" and the quality if often secondary. The enshittification of news.
