Πώς θα πούμε στα ελληνικά αυτές τις αβάσιμα γενικευτικές φρασούλες; Η Wikipedia, στο Manual of style της, γράφει:
Unsupported attributions
... some people say, it is believed, many are of the opinion, most feel, experts declare, it is often reported, it is widely thought, research has shown, science says, it was proved ...
Phrases such as these present the appearance of support for statements but can deny the reader the opportunity to assess the source of the viewpoint. They are referred to as "weasel words" by Wikipedia contributors. They can pad out sentences without adding any useful information and may disguise a biased view. Claims about what people say, think, feel, or believe, and what has been shown, demonstrated, or proved should be clearly attributed.
