This really could have had a lot of titles, but I wanted to talk about sourcing information that you use and relay to other people.
I really try to write down as much of what I learn as I can because one of the things that I’m very worried about it is passing along information that’s not vetted and that I’m sure about. If I don’t have first-hand knowledge of something I’ll make sure I either let the person know before I tell them or it’ll come immediately after.
