What is global news?

Something that happened or was uncovered recently anywhere in the world. It doesn't have to have global implications. Just has to be informative in some way.


Post guidelines

Title formatPost title should mirror the news source title.
URL formatPost URL should be the original link to the article (even if paywalled) and archived copies left in the body. It allows avoiding duplicate posts when cross-posting.
[Opinion] prefixOpinion (op-ed) articles must use [Opinion] prefix before the title.
Country prefixCountry prefix can be added to the title with a separator (|, :, etc.) where title is not clear enough from which country the news is coming from.

Right. He used a phrasing that has been deem socially unaccaptable in the western world for less then 10 years after he, for good reason, got angry at someone. Bring out the gallows.

Can you seriously just ignore the other side of the story because of that? Because I find her action much more baffeling.

"I told her that I'm not competent, but I can guide you. I can refer you to services that can take better care of you." [...] "I thought I was being honest when I said it wasn't my speciality. I don't know how to treat them [...]

That is a very reasonable response he gave at first. Now, what kind of person would insist to be treated by a doctor that just said he's not qualifed? And then get angry at the doctor for it?

It's so absurd, I'm seriously considering if this whole thing wasn't just staged, literally real life trolling. Otherwise she'd have to be some kind of super Karen.
