This is an exellent community but how can we take anyone seriously as a researcher of news and information if they cannot even use the search button on here for key phrases of an article before posting? I understand there are some obscure headings and sometimes it's inevitable but the number of duplicate posts is getting completely out of hand.

Not sure many people really care. I've been on numerous sites where people complain about duplicate posts but it's a benefit for people who don't live on the site 24/7. If I don't see an article on the first post I might see a later posting.
This is a good point. I've learned facts on here that were called out as being posted in the past, but I had missed them.
If the site were NOT cluttered with re-posts, the original post would not be buried 10 pages down.
