Newspapers are at best a secondary source, not primary.
Academic journals are intended to disseminate articles to be subjected to peer review, which means they are intended to spark discussions over observations among researchers in the field. This means that, with the exception of academic fraud, it's expected that their content doesn't reflect solid understanding of the issues involved. Otherwise they would be pointless as scientific papers.
