    I was going to write that this seems like a shitty paper, with the unprofessional writing and typos. Then I saw it referenced a Mirror article. Turns out they lifted much of the wording from the Mirror, but not all of the punctuation. So they took shitty writing and made it worse.

        So they might have the right to copy the text. But they still screwed it up.

        In another video posted at the weekend, Stimson makes it clear who he is fighting for Russia.

        The ending reads like a grammatical error. But in the Mirror they used a dash. At least that looks more clear, although I’d prefer a colon.

            I don’t intend to dig in! But it’s like entertainment journalism: there’s a very low bar!

            This seems like something that will move to GPT very quickly (if it hasn’t already).
