Happylibrarian I agree with you on this one...
There are wordsmith's posting all over the internet and they almost exclusively re-post what someone else said, so they have no legal liability for mis-information, they just say it was someone else.
These same folks have an impossible time being objective... only writing uber positive news, events, stories... etc. Never a negative narrative... so, one should be worried about motives.
When challenged, they get nasty.
