Here's the paper itself, which annoyingly is not linked to from the article. https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal...

Why would a rag like this be expected to cite its sources?
Very few traditional newspapers will link to external sites, even the "quality" ones.
Yup that's British media.

You will never see a source, usually you don't even get a full description.

Sometimes they link to something external but only if they don't want to discuss the topic but want to be able to claim to being fair.

BBC is most egregious for that.
