Donald Trump likes to talk about how “senile” Joe Biden is. In fact, he’s almost staked his entire campaign on it. But he’s having some trouble lately keeping things together mentally. Sure, we’ve all seen the occasional blurb where he’s stumbled over his words. But this is becoming a daily occurrence. When outspoken actor Robert […]

      The article and a picture of the actual words aren’t good enough for you? Are you confused about who and where the quote is from?

        Yes. It needs a link to the source for verification.

            There’s no link to the source of the quote in that article. Did you even check??

            Its mind blowing that I’m being down voted by folks who tell me to read the article who they themselves have only skimmed the article.

            A screenshot is not a source. Learn some information literacy, please.

              You’re being downvoted for making a stupid demand, and then downvoted even more for dying on it’s hill.

              You know where the quote came from. You know it’s source. You go there and verify it.

              I know you won’t though. Then there wouldn’t be anything for you to bitch about.

          The article states:

          …he posted on his social media.

          It takes a little bit of critical thinking if there isn’t a hyperlink to click on. His social media refers to Truth Social.

              You’re not that good at the whole critical thinking part of things, are ya?

                What? That’s exactly my criticism of others. Everyone upvoting this trash content is apparently OK with unverifiable claims from incredible sources who don’t cite their sources for quotes.

                Critical thinking is literally what I’m trying to teach and increase in our communities.

                  The quote is entirely verifiable. You know how, so does everyone. Whining because people won’t spoonfeed you a link is pathetic.

                    Its not spoonfeeding to follow basic best practices in journalism.

        No, I think its necessary that we follow basic best practices for all quotes on news platforms.
