"Trust but verify" means that after reading an interesting article, I actually get the research papers mentioned and at least gloss them over myself. It is depressing to see how often articles prefer clickbait and exaggerations over what the paper really states. This often causes collateral damage as the misquoted author(s) of the paper now have to defend themselves against these wrong conclusions. Le sigh.
