I assume that for each post on this site, everyone has read the article (and in this case, this paper) before jumping into the comments section to discuss what they have just read.
It seems the person you have just replied to has already admitted that they have read as far as just one sentence before rushing here in minutes later.
Perhaps they do this with every article they see. There are those who are unable to read beyond the headlines or the first paragraph and react here immediately. No wonder they are manipulated all the time these days as evident in their own reply below.
I usually start with comments. Only after that, if majority of the comments are not "this article is false and bad" I open the article.
Is it good or bad? No idea.
