Welcome to the News community!

Rules:

1. Be civil


Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.


2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.


Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.


Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.


5. Only recent news is allowed.


Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.


6. All posts must be news articles.


No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.


7. No duplicate posts.


If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.


8. Misinformation is prohibited.


Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.


9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.


All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.


10. Don't copy entire article in your post body


For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

If that's what the NavyNavy does, imagine what the NavyNavyNavy would do.

What bullshit news is this. Where is the reason? Where is the journalism?

It's the Navy times bro don't expect good things. Also it's a propaganda network.

Who needs journalism when you can get CLICKS!

"He's gone and we're not gonna say why, but if you point that out we're not going to call you the next time we have some news and we'll never issue a press pass to anyone from your organization ever again." - The Navy (probably)

Still no excuse for just slapping your masthead on their press release and calling it journalism, but there may be a bit of nuance here

If the news started telling us why, we would be able to form our own opinions on the information it provides. The 'why' has been a thing of the past for decades.

[–] NightLily@lemmy.basedcount.com 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Did they even try to get a comment from Cmdr. Michael Lyle cause the article doesn't even say...

[–] Salamendacious@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

I was kind of hoping someone reading it might have some insight because I searched around briefly but I couldn't get any more information.

[–] darganon@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago (2 children)

That seems like an extremely strong statement from the Navy, or maybe it's normal. Either way yikes.

[–] ViewSonik@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Yeah, big yikes.

[–] SheeEttin@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

That's the standard statement for anyone getting removed. It doesn't mean anything. For all we know, this could be due to something some junior enlisted did that he had no knowledge or control over.

Reason: Set sail after leaving his ICBM launch key in his car. I blame the rise of key fobs.
