It's still not in the OP though. Most viewers on Lemmy are just going to see the tweet.

It's not a huge deal to me since it links an actual journalist (Evan Dyer), but... it's still bad information hygiene. I think linking the original source should be the gold standard for Lemmy. We can do better at sourcing than pasting screenshots.

    I see what you mean. But the ABC article doesn't mention Flickinger, so it wouldn't have been relevant to the Canada community as is. The CBC reporter tweet about a Canadian death makes it relevant.

    Edit: also going back to the original comment, I think they're asking why did I share the ABC article if I said it was full of Israeli talking points. And my answer would be that it's the ABC interview/article that the CBC reporter mentions.
