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 format
Post title should mirror the news source title.
URL format
Post 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] prefix
Opinion (op-ed) articles must use [Opinion] prefix before the title.
Country prefix
Country 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.

It's more like:
- the handgun is an Uzi
- the gun owner is senile and has tremors in their hands
- the foot is painted bright orange, is 10 sizes larger than average, and is dusted in a light seasoning of primacord.
- The hand holding the gun is very tiny

It's one of the banned words
Soon it’ll probably be a crime to use/say/write/type/convey banned words like “thought” and “research”

The rubber bands are also made in china.

Remember how we've been punishing Cuba for 60 years by making sure they can't buy stuff from other countries? That's our new model for checks notes ... improving the US economy.
Actually great news, since we all know what those are used for.
