(146,262 posts)However, using that magazine, which is not actually a magazine at all, as a source on DU is not a good idea. If they are as fast and loose with facts as it appears, it's a poor source indeed. I will discount any information coming from it, unless I have the time to fact check the article personally, and I rarely have that much time.
So, despite the humor, there's a serious lesson here for DU, I think. Just because a website calls itself a magazine is no evidence that what is published there is worthy of serious consideration. This is just another example of that fact. The Internet is full of websites that are full of shit, along with many, many people who are willing to consume large quantities of that smelly matter. Everything must be questioned closely. That's unfortunate.
