When the only argument is fallacious, you actually need to provide something non- fallacious or you are left with no argument and your premise fails, as is the case here. I find it condescending that your only reply was a link and no text. Peak intellectual laziness.
It's not an argument, and so it's not an appeal to authority, nor any other fallacious argument. It's just the blurb you see if you click on the author's byline at the head of the article.
I clicked on it, because I wanted to know who the author was.
