    Please fix your bot. I’m one of the few that actually appreciates it (especially in an election year, with disinformation everywhere), but why would anyone want spam that just says “don’t know!” after every news story!? Either objectively and fairly rare sources, or say nothing.

      I guess so you know it’s working, just doesn’t know the source, vs not working at all.

      I agree with you (although I appreciate it less).

      There is SOME value on being aware of whether a source appears unknown or fringe, though. Whether that’s justified here or not.
