10. Global Research

I clicked around at Global Research stories for just a few moments and and I smell non-sense. I noticed immediately the constant use of generalities like (sources say..., a report was given..., a study showed..., many people...) and so on. If this were "Public Speaking 101" at any collage, the literature would fail. Go to any known source of factual information and read how true documentation is presented. For example, a comment about people dying at a hospital from from a common cause would include the name of the hospital, doctors, case numbers, references, dates and times, preexisting conditions of the patients and so on. I did not see a consistent use of references or bibliographical context at all. I'll personally not read or take stock in any commentary of Global Research. Anything Global Research presents can be found in factual context at twenty other site with references in minutes. No reason to read anymore Global Research.
