Kind of the same thing as "it was reported in a newspaper." It would normally be expected of a journalist to cite the specific source if they can.

  Journalists love to be vague about sources so you don't go to the source.

    Sure, there's a lot of that around, but I wouldn't call it journalism. Clickbait maybe.

    Clearly not the case here, since there's a link.
