i have no idea what “feed” you are talking about, but if this is honest, non-trolling response, then you should learn to pick your sources better.
not all news sources are created equal. some employ professional journalists who collect and verify news before publishing them, ensuring to a reasonable degree that what you read is true, and some are… high frequency dispatch dot com, whatever the fuck that is.
You should be able to figure out what feed I’m referring to in context. I’m on lemmy. It’s obviously the lemmy feed.
And what’s described is a major news event that there are dozens of high quality sources for. I just threw something up to answer my own question about what even this post was referring to.
Despite pontificating about sources, you’re demonstrating extremely poor critical thinking and source consideration. The first step of research is figuring out just what level of scrutiny is required. This was a throwaway line to quickly answer a throwaway question, and you’re going down some weird rabbit hole demanding other sources when quick googling could find any number of sources.
Try to use better information practices. It’s poor form to be demanding additional sources when casual sources suffice for a casual problem. If you want something deeper, you are more than capable of finding it.

i do appreciate the lecture on source consideration from a person linking to some totally obscure blog instead of reliable news source… i definitely wasn’t ready for “no, you” strategy, so you at least have point for originality 😆
From context it just sounds like they were saying that a post with that link followed immediately after this one in their lemmy feed. Coming off unnecessarily aggressive.

again, that has zero effect on relevance or trustworthiness of the source.
Coming off unnecessarily aggressive.
and here i am thinking i am quite patient and clarifying. 🤷♂️ we live drowning in a sea of misinformation, and when someone gives a source so obscure it doesn’t even have record in the mediabiasfactcheck.com, for the event that was covered by every reliable news source, it is important to ask why. “i just copied it from somewhere” does not really cut it.
you couldn’t find more obscure blog to link to?
Feel free to provide another source if you like.
i can do that, but that doesn’t make your choice any less strange…
It was in the feed directly after this story.
