Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.

A community for comrades to chat and talk about whatever doesn't fit other communities

I haven't heard of them until like 2-3 years ago and I see them posted in World News quite often. What kind of a news source is this? Are they biased in some way? Where are they based? Is there anything notable to know about them?

They're the largest media org in the middle east and have been for decades. They're very good on some topics, and will reliably provide a different perspective from that of western media, but they are owned by the Qatari state, so you should be highly critical of stories that involve Qatar's interests, just as you would be of a BBC story involving British interests.
