The source that this article cites is stundin.is. That article does not have any links or citations for what it's saying. It just refers to 'court documents'. It also cites other evidence obtained by stundin directly, but does not link to it or quote from it directly. How do we know if this claim is even true?
- okamiueru 5y agoThe article is nothing but filled with citations. Are we looking at the same thing? All those quotes, and who said it, are the citations. And all of them are traced to its respective sources.
- jugg1es 5y agoIn this article? https://stundin.is/grein/13627/key-witness-in-assange-case-admits-to-lies-in-indictment/ https://stundin.is/grein/13627/key-witness-in-assange-case-a... There isn't a single link in that article. It makes tons of claims but does not include references to the primary source. For example: "Thordarson spoke with a journalist from Stundin for several hours as he prepared a thorough investigative report into his activities that include never before published chat logs and new documents." It's honestly not clear whether his sentence refers to the journalist or Thordarson when it says "as he prepared", but either way, it references previously-unpublished chat logs and repeats what is in them but does not actually show any of the logs. I'm not saying the claims aren't true, just that this article sets of my BS detectors because there isn't a single link in it. They are asking the reader to take a lot on faith.
- okamiueru 5y agoI thought you meant the article the this HN entry links to. I see what you mean now. Thanks for clarifying.
