What counts as a "news article"? Does a blog count? Does it have to be a "traditional" media outlet (eg. tv station, newspaper)? Do op-ed/letters to the editor/"contributor" sections count? How does reporting by a third party vet anything, if they're just repeating the person's claims? eg. "Local business is racist, customer claims" provides the same information as a yelp review saying "this business is racist!".
