I think the high level of reporting facts based on unnamed sources is a shift in journalism standards over the last ten years is a move in the wrong direction

It's open for debate Chico, as are all opinion based pieces.
As it is, I rarely read and never watch CNN so I have to go by your opinion that CNN is published by the devil and other's opinions on it.
As for unnamed sources, I understand your viewpoint but I also understand that if a source would like to keep their job (aka the reason why they can be a source in the first place) at a high level of gov't it's probably for the best imo. I know there are exceptions but I also believe most sources are vetted and/or confirmed before they start publishing info, and if they aren't they could at least include a disclaimer to state otherwise. And I also acknowledge it's an imperfect system where occasionally unconfirmed rumors get published and usually end up being retracted later with 1/10 the views the original publication got.
