I don't mean to imply anything wrong with the article, but I totally agree that bringing this up is relevant. The potential motivations of who is telling you something is very important. One of the first things I did was google "who owns national geographic". Then I looked through the comments here to see if it'd been mentioned. (I would've made a similar comment, despite the almost inevitable downvoting which I see has so far happened to your comment.) One might also want to check the linked article and its source, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_Reports https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_Reports (I also don't mean to imply anything about that.)
