We have a list of "no go to" sites. http://doubtfulnews.com/2014/04/doubtful-news-beyond-doubtful-list-of-no-go-to-sources/<br /><br />It's important not to link to these stories as it makes them rank higher in search results. You can use http://donotlink.com instead to reference.<br /><br />On this list is a site called Cryptozoology News. The stories have no references as if the "reports" are completely fabricated or fabricated by another who sends them in as real. These stories make news aggregators and get high hit counts. That's a real shame and such deceptive practices contributes to the very poor reputation of cryptozoology in scholarly circles. Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
