Another clickbait title

It's been publicly known they were there for quite some time. I guess if the journalist says they just learned about they can make a title as if it just happened

No argument here. I found it interesting that "Neither the government nor the Canadian Forces would officially confirm the special forces presence in Ukraine when contacted by Global News".
Which begs the question where does one go to source actually news instead of clickbait and opinion pieces? I find periodicals and peer reviewed journals offer some substance when looking for content but not when it comes to current events.
