This is True stories come from "legitimate" mainstream printed
news sources (never "tabloids"). The facts from these articles are the
basis of True's stories, which are written by Randy Cassingham in
their entirety. Each story ends in a credit to the source, such as the
Los Angeles Times or the Denver Post. Note, however, Randy
tries as much as possible to credit the original source. For
example, if the newspaper credits a wire service as the source, that's
what the credit says; it's usually not credited to the specific paper
Randy found the story in. Thus the most-cited sources in True are
the major news wires:
AP (Associated Press)
*Special note on Reuters: For years, Reuters slugged their datelines (Reuter), so most newspapers, and Randy, did too. In October 1997, the wire service changed their slug to (Reuters), so Randy changed True's credit lines to show this new usage. |
