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.


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. We have an actively updated blocklist, which you can see here: https://lemmy.world/post/2246130 if you feel like any website is missing, contact the mods. 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.

Wouldn't that be enough for a Defamation case against those scrooges?

Man, what happened to Tapper?

I used to think he was pretty on the level, but this plus his and Bash’s weak ass debate moderating have really soured me on the dude.

I guess being “bullied” off of Bluesky because people wanted him to do his job better really screwed him up.

IMHO, he's always been "Left of Center (for an American)" or maybe neo-Liberal. I would never consider him a Progressive. Now, as we're seeing more progressive lawmakers and some progressive policies being spotlit, the Overton Window is expanding, and he's staying right where he's always been.

You know AIPAC is going run all these clips during her reelection campaign.

I’m more surprised people still watch CNN.

[–] kibiz0r@midwest.social 16 points 4 days ago (1 children)

CNN has the youngest audience among cable news networks. Median age of 67.

Is it early onset dementia?

Really not that many. On average 800k were tuned in for primetime news (in '22, closest i could find)

[–] sarcasticsunrise@lemmy.world 9 points 3 days ago

This whole story is disgusting and damn near McCarthy-esque in replacing "Communist" with "anti-semite". The Michigan AG, Jake Tapper and Dana Bash should be collectively shamed and ashamed of themselves for continuing to propagate this smear campaign. Rashida should sue CNN for slander

[–] slacktoid@lemmy.ml 1 points 3 days ago

Jake tapper is a demon.
