That's standard for western news articles these days. They all reference each other and if you do find an original source, it's always some random nobody's blog or some random person's speculation.
The worst part is those "services" that claim to examine "media bias" while not doing anything of the sort, just telling people that the generic liberal media is "trustworthy" and anything else is automatically "biased" They are so eager to let someone else do their thinking for them, they'll even pay them to do it.
