So if your best friend in the whole world, who you trust with your life, came to you and said "the earth is flat" you'd just believe him because you trust him?
You wouldn't ask "where did you hear that?"
And if he told you he saw it on a news website that you also trust, you wouldn't wonder where THEY heard it from? Which scientist informed them of this fascinating tidbit of news?
Perhaps you're not interested in learning new things, expanding your knowledge base, or making sure that you are *accurately* informed of things.
I'm very interested in knowing stuff. So I look up things when "someone said" something.
