Whatever information I read now … I have to constantly stop to ask myself… who wrote this? … why? … who does the writer represent? Who are they? What do they do? Where do they come from? What are their names and do they have a bio?

This is actually the hard part of actual “research”: evaluating the source’s qualities.

Every time someone says to me “have you heard about xxxxxxxxx yyyyyyyyyyy” I ask, “according to whom?”.
