I don’t really know if it’s a significant finding. My point was that you asked “how you measure a 1 percent decline in news source quality?” and suggested that your personal confusion about such a thing throws the entire paper into question. Instead of having such strong judgments, why not just read the paper? I am personally not sure how astronomers measure gravitational redshift with such apparent accuracy. But my ignorance does not mean astronomers are a bunch of frauds. It means I haven’t done the required reading.
