Cute, but no.
Perfect example is the Bryce Harper story from the other day. That story was anonymous sourced with no effort made at confirmation. Anyone with any sense should question that. This is directly from a primary source who observed these actions himself.
In a day and age where people pick and choose what they believe based on whether they agree with it or not, it is much better to understand how to trace to source material to decide how much credence to put into something instead of do I like it or not.
Definitely better than attacking the messenger because the message hurt your feelings.
