The only legitimate information is the Compost's anonymously sourced lies.

Yes, that is why I rely exclusively on Wikipedia.

Washington Post's Philip Bump and Glenn Kessler defended their outlet's limited reporting on the Hunter Biden laptop story back in 2020

What a POS.

Even if it is 100% less likely to be wrong than believing

well...I’m thinking that it has been a lot of homework and research to see and understand “The way things Are”, thank you Rush, but I’m really tired and need some extra free time so I’ll just read your research and accept what ever your people write as gospel truth....WHEN 7734 FREEZES OVER! in the meantime I’ll be happy doing my own.

“Yes, that is why I rely exclusively on Wikipedia.”

Wiki is sometimes a good place to start. If I need to dig deeper then I get into the footnotes.

The footnotes can be a treasure trove of BS, propaganda, and half-truths and sometimes that’s useful information because it tells you how the other side is framing a discussion or concept.

Questioning Authority is only valid when a conservative is in charge.

Good Citizens know: unauthorized research can decrease your social credit score. IT'S NOT WORTH THE RISK!
