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.
This is what happens when MSM doesn't cover actual news properly.
Look at the protests. instead of showing the overwhelmingly peaceful protests as such, they focused on the relative handfull of assholes, who are probably false-flags to discredit the movement against trump anyways.
Right. I can watch a restream of 15+ tiktok lives in the middle of the action, why would I watch fox news push narratives for 55min an hour, with a 5min clip of a burning car or someone spraying graffiti
12 min of every hour for boner pills and selling you gold and silver, too.
I'm in the UK and haven't used a TV in over a decade, I can believe this.
Dane here, and I'm pretty much in the same boat. I get my news on news websites though, not social media - and especially not from partisan sources like Joe Rogan. I want neutral sources that only report the facts, no opinions.
Who would have thought that this would be the result of what happens when oligarchs buy up most major and even many local news outlets, run the same story on the front page of every news source, and ~~censor~~ edit the shit out of important news before burying it somewhere so that you have to literally go out of your way and dedicate a significant chunk of time searching for it. Staying as informed as I am able to has literally become my new very unfun "hobby."
I'm assuming they were hoping more people would just stop paying attention to what is happening and never ask any questions about why everything is so fucking awful all the time.
This is what happens when the MSM is a propaganda blow horn for the CIA/FBI/Gov't.
RIP internet.
