A fun new game:
0) notice a big story unfolding
1) write down each spicy revelation and its source
2) don't repeat them (hard, I know)
3) wait seven days (even harder)
4) check several reliable sources for their most recent coverage
5) for each revelation that turned out to be barely true or straight BS, blacklist that source as unreliable
6) if that's all or most of the revelations then sit by a large body of water and ask yourself what the sources had to gain
7) goto 0
