Which leads me to believe you singled out the HT because of their brownness or perhaps non-Jeebusness.

I singled them out because it was an obscure source and misinformation is rife on the Internet. If you believe I might be secretly a bigot, you are welcome to check my post history, but I promise you, I am not.

Which are all bullshit in many ways…

100% agree. Not a single source on that list, except maybe the bbc would I trust as a single source, and only then if it were about non-political international stories.
