You got that right, and even if they do, given the recent bad rep, it is
questionable if the resources are valid.

If you have a news source that is not coming under fire for misreporting or
allogations of misreporting been proven, then is a good bet there is more
truth than not.  In these times, everyone is going to accuse everyone else,
so I wouldn't even be spreading this.

If any news source doesn't name their sources, it is always suspect.
