I am told about posting an OP and providing a reliable link, and my response has always been the same, make me a list of reliable sources.

My OP without a link is my opinion, I own it. Someone who posts a video with no comment doesn't tell me how the poster feels. Sometime I wonder if by posting a link the poster avoids being held accountable?

I see a headline and then I look at the source, if the source is Magat, IMO, I ignore it.
