The anonymous folks are just as bad as the ones that dont say anything. Come out with it fully. Show. Your. face.
Nah breh, they’re heroes. This regime isn’t going to be honest with us, and they’re putting their safety and livelihood on the line talking, even by going off the record. When these stories leak companies and government agencies start trying to find out who talked. And they’re not dumb so can often use process of elimination.
I used to be a newspaper reporter. On the record is always preferred, but anonymous sources are very legit. Don’t forget that Watergate was exposed thanks to an anonymous source.
