It’s not very relevant to a story about eels, but the problem media has with primary sources, is that you can’t spin primary sources. They would rather have you read their editorial account of the primary source, rather than provide it to you, where there’s a greater risk of you making up for own mind about what to think of it.

Especially in politics, so many big-name news sites across the entire political spectrum seem to consistently run stories that collapse instantly when checked. How on earth do they still exist with a business model that seems to consist solely of making absurd interpretations of YouTube videos and tweets?
