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 right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted seperately but not to the post body.
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.
Posts which titles don’t match the source won’t be removed, but the autoMod will notify you, and if your title misrepresents the original article, the post will be deleted. If the site changed their headline, the bot might still contact you, just ignore it, we won’t delete your post.
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 or celebrity gossip is allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis.
7. No duplicate posts.
If a source you used was already posted by someone else, the autoMod will leave a message. Please remove your post if the autoMod is correct. 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.
The auto mod will contact you if a link shortener is detected, please delete your post if they are right.
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.
I've been actively blocking their content for a while now. They're compromised and can't be trusted to be honest anymore. Their billionaire overlord has them broken and beaten.
WaPo has changed to dark mode.
Don't rely on any news source owned by a sycophant. Because the upper ranks bends to the wills of the owners everytime and this is an example.
It's like, Fox News shouldn't ever be trusted, not because of just it's nature but it's owned by the Murdoch family. A bunch of sycophants.
Washington Post? Owned by Bezos.
I really want a browser add on or something that replaces backgrounds on websites with the creepiest shot of whatever rich fuck owns the site. Doesn't fully block sites, but I can't read a word of it without bezos staring back at me. It would help me better than ground news ever could.
wapo went from criticizing trump, to polishing his knob.
Wonder if there’s anything stopping her from publishing that column elsewhere. Sounds like a good read!
Democracy dies in darkness... The billionaires will make sure of it.
This is what they want? Now they can replace her with a propaganda mouthpiece.
They know people who are not fascists have morals and will leave a place that won't give them any respect.
The right won't do that. They will stay and even seek out new places that their bullshit has yet to infest, so that they can spread their lies.
All of WaPo is a mouthpiece since Bezos flexed his ownership.
