And their source is Reuters or Associated Press. Some stories come direct from foreign correspondents living in the cities.
The source of the article is cited at the bottom, or a link to a bio on the reporter.

Here's the quote from reuters;
The hottest air temperature recorded anywhere on the planet in at least a century, and possibly ever,
It took me all of 30 seconds to find that the record was not 130 degrees but 134 degrees in 1913. You're saying we shouldn't expect a good journalist to be able to do the same? "and possibly ever"?
come.... on.... man.....

If everyone that does sloppy, or dishonest, work has people like you making excuses for them can we reasonably expect those results to change?
For decades women in hollywood seemed to suffer men taking advantage of them sexually. Was that because they spoke out, immediately and loudly, about it when it happened, or, because they made excuses for it?
