    Of course, but questionable or unsubstantiated reports don’t suddenly become 100% credible simply because they are the only information available.

        The person I responded to literally said that they would take the report “at face value”, which means you accept it unquestioningly.

          You accepting it doesn’t imply that the source is credible; you just don’t have any alternative.
