Looking at the surface of the ocean and speculating what may or may not have been below it 10,000 years ago is not journalism. It's storytelling. Do I expect the man to go swimming around the ocean's depths? I have no expectation one way or the other. My only expectation is that, having not done such work, he doesn't claim to have the result of the work he didn't do. I assume GP was thinking similarly.
