I dunno, my dude. That’s still quite a reach to go from a simple question to automatically determining that it’s a hatchet job.
I’m not saying you’re wrong, just that you’re assuming a lot more than I normally works from a singular question.
There’s a significant difference between the two questions in your first sentence: quality of verifiability. The goal here is to determine accuracy anyways. Asking that directly will never get you an answer that you should accept at face value.
If I ask “is this accurate?”, any sourceless responses lack weight. “yes” holds as much proof as “no.”
But “has anyone heard of this” is a much lower barrier of veracity. Answers themselves won’t determine the accuracy of the article, just whether or not anyone can help establish credibility.
It’s important to question and verify sources, no matter who it is. Criticizing someone who does makes you no better than anyone pushing propaganda.
