We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

Links to news stories from...
...credible sources, with...
...their original headlines, that...
...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

The only news in that story was that someone tweeted something. That is lazy. They were successful in stealing the clicks from the actual reporter.

Here is the thing. As of last week, Elon marks news that makes Trump look bad as spam (see NPR’s coverage of the Arlington Cemetery debacle).

So now the news stories not marked as spam are the news stories that are “Elon Approved”.

Why are any self respecting journalists still on Twitter hoping to publish things that Elon deems not to be spam.
