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.

SCOTUS: nobody is forcing you to purchase from businesses that use these plastic containers. Therefore nobody has standing to sue

Imagine working for Inhance and high-fiving your coworkers because a court said it's legal for you to continue contaminating humans and the environment with a harmful chemical.
