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.

Our nation does seem to be slipping down the same slide that Germany did in the 1930s. Maybe the collapse of government in the hands of a madman is inevitable, given how the media landscape has been corrupted by partisans, as it was in 1930s Germany.
I hope not.
90 percent of the media is owned by like 7 families
And a mad man could soon have a shit ton of nukes and one of the best militaries the world has ever seen. Please vote this November
every single person who voted for Trump is going to Hell
Happy Easter everybody
Problem is they want to take us all with them.
...and this is what it takes for people to turn back to their local news media for accurate, unbiased coverage. Kudos to cleveland.com and any other media organization who decides to print the truth and not some repackaged drivel from the handful of largely-conservative mass media organizations.
Hmmm wondering if more media hadn’t written that clear and simple message 5 years ago ….
They were too invested in the 'both sides are just trying to do things differently' idea and didn't want to appear to be taking sides. This unfortunately breaks when abused by fascists, and it takes time to drop traditions that don't work for the current times.
Plus a lot of the media is owned by conservatives who want to keep their side appearing to be legitimate.
Seriously.
Even though I'm not in their coverage area, I feel like buying a subscription.
At least click on a few ads.
Ughh, the sacrifices we have to make
I know, the bare minimum!
What an amazing piece. Thank you!
some 1984 shit, trying to convince people what they heard and saw is not real
I sent a thank-you email to the editor and also pointed out a missing word so the can fix a sentence (I'm just pedantic like that). I hope more newsrooms will follow this example.
I heard in a podcast interview that whatever GOP org is now adding the following to their interview process: "Who won the 2020 election?" If you don't say Trump, you don't get the job. The amount of control that he has over the GOP is still startling.
