All I said was "I'm reserving judgement". It's good practice to wait until something has appeared in several news sources especially if a brief bit of research

  I'm just asking a very basic question. Whether if the sources (tweets) in this particular story is misinformation or faked regardless of what you think about the organization reporting it. > It's good practice to wait until something has appeared in several news sources especially if a brief bit of research casts doubt on this one. It is indeed. But what if these 'several news sources' you speak of don't ever report it at all? If this article had no sources, screenshots, etc and just a block of 'text', then I would have agreed with you. But the tweets in the author's Twitter account as sourced in this article and cross-referenced with their Patreon account (which last time I checked it is still disabled) [0] makes it difficult to dismiss this as false. That's my brief bit of research. You are welcome to discredit and disprove the contents of the article as well as its sources and tweets. > It's quite revealing that you immediately leapt to a much more exaggerated interpretation of my short statement. Revealing that I actually read the contents of the article and its sources and do my own basic research to determine if a particular article is misinformation, faked or not. Rather than wait for others to do it and they end up never covering it. [0] https://www.patreon.com/sydneywatson https://www.patreon.com/sydneywatson
