This to me is one of the most discouraging parts of mainstream media. "Old" stories get articles written about them as if they are new news. This is probably why social media has become where some people get their news.
- Bartweiss 9y agoIt's frustrating on several levels. Letting stories 'age' a bit is actually good, it makes detailed coverage with expert input possible.

"Speed, accuracy, pick one" would still be one more merit than we actually get.
