Anything that challenges their narrative, even from what they consider trusted outlets by their own definition using an unchanged headline from the original article, gets removed.
Never posted on r/worldnews before and got permabanned for this. The mods there truly are genocidal neoliberal fascists. Boycott Western media.
I’m sure I’m gonna get shit for this, but…
An article of the actual event was on the front page of /r/worldnews for several days. Who her family happens to ascribe blame to doesn’t sound even remotely news-worthy to me - they have exactly as much information as anyone else
I don’t think it warrants a ban, but I also don’t think the article belongs 🤷♂️
It’s also flared as being covered by other news articles. Not worth a ban, but people’s feeds shouldn’t be filled with every news article for every event, so I’d agree with the post being un-needed.
That sounds legit, until you go to the sub and it’s 100000 posts about russia/ukraine - most of them about the exact same event(s). 1, 2, 3, 4
It might have also been removed since world news (last time I was on it a few years ago) does not allow United States specific news. Since they’re Americans speaking in America I suspect that might fall under that rule.
The removal reason is literally visible in the screenshot. It has nothing to do with being specific to the United States, it got removed because an article on the topic has previously been posted to the sub already, and they don’t want their frontage to be full of reposts
