Why do articles like this never link the research they are referencing?
Why do articles almost never present their sources at all, be it research or not? That makes it so much harder to evaluate them.
It drives me insane when articles link themselves as a source. Example of what in thunking of.
"The world is ending because of human sized ants"
Then you click on the link expecting a source to back up their claim and it links to an article they wrote called human sized ants are taking over the world and that article links back to another article from them forever and ever but never has an actual source or any information to support their claims.
