... and nothing of value will be lost by this action.
good, we won't read those either.
No. Dont. Stop.
Yup. Good riddance
Damn. Anyways…
Imagine paying to read CNN, specifically. There are respectable newspapers that people won’t pay for.
It’ll backfire and they’ll fall back on more ads. 10 minutes of ads for every 2 minutes of political talk shows. On their website, an ad between every paragraph.
The only time I even see CNN is on American movies where characters have it on the TV in the background :) Lols.
It use to be a legitimate and good news organization covering providing some history making reporting for events in the last 30 years or so. CNN got a new owner/leadership with conservative leanings a few years ago and now its news quality ranges from "suspect" to "straight to the waste bin".
It’s all clickbait anyway like Huffington Pissed.
The site nowadays is 10% news, 90% celebrity colon cleanse reviews. If their main biz is cable news just pretend they don't exist
Lock all the articles up at the Cunt Newz Netwerk. No one is interested in your fascist word salad. There are dirty bathroom stalls with more news facts on them than your website.
Naming and shaming all "recurring spending models" where a one-time fee (or none at all) would be appropriate and logical.
Expect use of strong language.
Follow the basic rules of lemmy.world and common sense, and try to have fun if possible.
No flamewars or attacking other users, unless they're spineless corporate shills.
Note that not all subscriptions are awful. Supporting your favorite ~~camgirl~~ creator or Lemmy server on Patreon is fine. An airbag with subscription is irl Idiocracy-level dystopian bullshit.
New community rule: Shilling for cunty corporations, their subscriptions and other anti-customer practices may result in a 1-day ban. It's so you can think about what it's like when someone can randomly decide what you can and can't use, based on some arbitrary rules. Oh what, you didn't read this fine print? You should read what you're agreeing to.
