FT doesnt owe you a citation, or any explanation. It's a subscription newspaper, not a public resource. Just because someone linked to it on HN doesn't change that. If you feel that FT's reporting is insufficient, or unreliable, or lacks context, then go exercise a very simple remedy... don't read it. All your comments read as if FT owes you something, despite you not being the paper's target audience (or a paid subscriber).
