You just condemn the source. You say NOTHING about WHAT they report. Which is a FAKE line of attack.

Ad hominem and genetic

Ad hominem and genetic attacks are actually two different types of logical fallacies, but they share many similarities as both choose to attack the source of an argument instead of its actual validity. In an ad hominem attack, attempts are made to chip away at an argument through attacks on the character of the person making it.
Similarly, a genetic logical fallacy neglects the contents of an actual argument in favor of attacking where it came from. Both ad hominem and genetic attacks are illogical because of the myriad times when a terrible person or organization, despite being awful, still said something true.
