    The ABC article is a direct reprint of the AP article. It also says so. The EU Pravda article is a summary.

    But sure, if you want to argue that the ABC article is not technically the primary source, I guess. It didn’t alter anything from the primary source, however. You can see that for yourself.

        Maybe. I just worry about the lack of critical thought people already have when it comes to articles posted here since they don’t read them. Now we’re at a point where even people who do read them are likely not to then click through and read the source of their information. That’s a couple of steps away from ‘my uncle on Facebook’ territory.

        But whatever. Apparently the overwhelming consensus is that we don’t need primary sources, so I’m done.

          Oh I don’t disagree with you one bit. I just thought I was getting that familiar scent of “I woke up in a fucking mood,” and I know from experience that “spoiling for a fight” isn’t good for me, so …

          My previous comment was out of sincere concern for you, nothing more.

            Oh fair enough. I am definitely on the grumpy side this morning. And I think the election is not helping me or anyone else right now. I appreciate it.

              We can’t always be “on” when it comes to righting wrongs. We’re in this together, and it’s a relay race.
