News
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.
everyone around me in the 90s thought i was crazy for insisting bill clinton should be tied up and thrown in the river just for telling lies, even though i've never not voted D
turns out it was much worse than just getting a BJ from an intern
yes, all politicians lie. and when it's established that they'll face no consequences for it-- just look where that got us today
Let's not divert the attention from Trump.
it is true that trump needs to be removed from anything resembling authority, and that should be everyone's top priority, american or not
but it's also important to remember that people have been asking "how was hitler allowed to get as far as he did?" since the 40s
people ignoring that question is part of the reason we have trump in the first place--people letting fucking corrupt amoral politicians get away with shit. how tf did a weird scream sink howard dean, but fraud, corruption, "grab'em by the pussy," literal child-raping not sink trump?
stopping trump is paramount, but it's not enough. we have to make it so this never happens again.
100%, well said.
No no I've got enough attention for both [all] of them. I don't care who they are or if I voted for them
Excellent, they all need to go down. I thought you were trying to divert attention, like many MAGATS are doing today and probably for a long time after. Either way, have a great holiday season.
