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.
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.
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.
“We have published by mistake a modified version of this photo on the site,” the magazine wrote
Lol riiight, that’s believable. Why did you modify the photo in the first place? Someone had to actually do a couple minutes of work to remove the pin.
I wish people would just own their mistakes, not tell condescending and unbelievable lies about them. We’re not as stupid as they think we are.
We’re not as stupid as they think we are.
Aren't we though?
"We were trying really hard to cover up any controversy so that everyone thinks everyone else is okay with genocide, making them less likely to speak out themselves," is a really bad look. Obvious bullshit is much more palatable to the masses. (See: Donald Trump)
“My wife put that flag up after a dispute with our neighbor.”
Headline: Should Justice Alito be blamed for his wife’s neighbor feud?
It doesn’t even matter if those of us that frequent sites like lemmy believe it. Because much more powerful forces control the narrative.
At best it was one rogue employee making the edit and pushing it through. But they lose credit for that by not stating that in the apology.
"We apologize for being caught."
Love that Guy.
The damage was already done. Fuck Vanity Fair.
