I'm not sure why you're being so heavily downvoted, you're absolutely right. Neither the Yahoo article nor the Guardian article it's based on did the legwork to back up the premise. To drown out the misinformation, journalists need to bring the facts, else they leave the narrative open to bad faith criticism. I don't see where you've advocated for the morons in the least, just asked that journalist's do their jobs.
