lankaenews is a useless rag

Lankaenews, though it has a high hitrate is useless for the following reasons:
1) often Factually wrong
2) Sensationalist
3) manufactures "facts"
4) Unverified stories (eg letters from Unionists are published like "news")
5) No responses from parties who are accused
6) libel and slander

I hope some of those who they accuse incorrectly takes them to court and gets them punished for libel ... but then they are not taken as Credible by the larger sri lankan community so noone might bother

Advice: Don't quote from Lankaenews if you don't want to look like a complete dolt
