Logically speaking, it is not unwise to treat dubious sources with a certain modicum of suspicion. Or at least skepticism. At the same time, however, one shouldn't casually dismiss them without more careful scrutiny, either.

Sounds like a post reflecting 10th Dans and Sokes..:erg:

Well, let's put it this way...

I'm not just talking about newspapers here. :supcool:

Sure. However, life is short--and when a source has repeatedly demonstrated its bias, and the owner of the source has explicitly stated why the bias is there, you can pretty much stop bothering to ask whether or not it's biased and go look for something better.

Hrmm.... yes. I'm inclined to agree with this assessment.

There are some sources I just wouldn't waste my time with. Especially in the martial arts.

Nothing to argue with there...

All I said was that I tend to think it's important to consdier the source: don't you?

Consider the sources, sure. Disregard them only because of who they represent and nothing more, no.
