That's not a source either. For a source to be meaningful, you need to cite

(1) a specific document

(2) from a reputable source

(3) with enough information to enable readers to track it down and read it for themselves.

So far you are missing elements (1) and (3).

And yes, it is on the person making the claim (you, in this case) to provide that.

The only peson who can get away with saying "you'll have to Google that" is Robert Earl Keen.
