I feel like there must be a better source for this information
- hgsgm 3y agoBecause you are offended by Cracked's font? They have a long reputation of good research.
- spencerflem 3y agoLiterally just look at their homepage - it's entirely bottom-of-the barrel top 10 lists about celebrities. I miss old Cracked.com when they had a consistent set of good writers but even in the good ol' days they were making comedy articles and not serious journalism.
- nolok 3y agoI would be very interested in how you define them as having a "long reputation of good research", given that they don't do research so much as pointing to various links without checking their quality and make sure to specify may/could/potentially/... All over their long form articles specifically to not be making any claim since they don't research them enough. I'm not blaming them at all for it by the way, they're a comedic publication not investigative, I'm just weirded out by your perception of them when they themselves go out of their way to not purport themselves as any kind of authoritative source.
- Clubber 3y ago>They have a long reputation of good research. They had good writers at one time, but that time has long passed.

They’re listed on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_longest_prison_sentences_served https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_longest_prison_sentenc..., but I’m unable to find a Wikipedia page for them (Francis Clifford Smith).
