        Hiding behind "sources" allows a "journalist" to say or print any agenda driven lie that pops into their heads. @CNN is a perfect example.

        I assumed this is just about the "senior official" type sources, and tax leaker or Reality Winner would still be genuinely anonymous sources

        To distinguish between "someone left me a note" and "I spoke with a known, viable source but can't attribute," the distinction seems fair.

        Thank you for that. I keep having to remind people that "anonymous sources" aren't anonymous to the reporters who are quoting them.

        The talking point that you refuse to acknowledge, is that these "sources" have only emerged under the Trump administration.
