They would have said whatever they were paid to. As they always do.

Paid by whom?

Good Lord. You don't actually *trust* "Which", do you?

I've no reason to suppose Which reports are fraudulent.
Do you?

That's not the issue.

Well, it was the issue I was raising.
The poster claimed that Which produced fraudulent reports
in return for payment.

That is completely different from saying that
you do not agree with some, or even all, of their reports.
