Based on their editorial policy, it doesn't seem like they're aiming for legitimate research. Inversely assigning credibility based on financial status and power is absurd, and is quite frankly no better than doing the exact opposite. Based on that policy, I guess a guy living in a van connecting to the internet via free wifi is a more credible source than the New York Times. I wonder where Alex Jones and his Infowars would fit in to all of this. Or even, Glenn Beck's 'The Blaze'. Granted, they don't exactly have alot of power. But they obviously have alot of money to run their respective sites.
