I wish the article put actual numbers or evidence of declining sales. I agree that reduction of sales is the most likely cause, but if they say that sales plummet without actual proof it becomes poor journalism.
- baobun 1y agoHmm, I couldn't find a source for that elsewhere, just slop rereporting in loops. If they had insider leaks I would imagine they mentioned that aspect so it's possible that this part is derived from speculation. I just went ahead and editorialized the title with the insertion of an "allegedly" since the sales drop part is unsubstantiated. > if they say that sales plummet without actual proof it becomes poor journalism Proof is a high ask. Evidence would be great. But here yeah, waving the premise of the article away with "some reports say" is hardly journalism.
- NewsaHackO 1y agoIt's not you, it's just that we've allowed "journalists" to get away with this for so long. They essentially write opinion pieces as new articles with absolutely no research. : Synology is a private company, so I guess they can't use stock filings or stock prices, but they should at least quote something substantial and add to the discussion.
