Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

MODERATORS
I can't believe Israel just killed 100+ civilians while they were praying and there's hardly any backlash
Wtf? And then they also lied about there being militants. That's just insane.
Reuters is a far-right newspaper with views barely distinguishable from Breitbart but for some reason are treated as respectable
The New York Crimes and Washington Post have more credibility than the dogshit rag that is Reuters
I remember reading something from Reuters for a school assignment back in high school over 10 years ago and going “Wait, this is a reputable news source? This is Fox News filth.” and if anything I was being too kind
At least they bothered to add a fucking author’s name. Publishing an article with no author attached is fucking cowardice and usually should mean you assume that article is lying through its teeth. I’m looking at you Associated Press.
this is one of the things that irritates the fuck out of me about The Economist
Reuters, The Economist, and AP are my most hated news organizations. I truly do not understand why they’re upheld as reputable. Like, at least NYT has a few good journalists that sometimes get stuff through. Those 3 are absolute rags.
Reminder that Lenin dismissed The Economist as “a journal that speaks for British millionaires”.
TameeOliveFern posted another update, social media uproar may have had some effect as it was updated again the next morning:
Still not as good as the first that explicitly acknowledged Israel purposefully targeted the school.
reuters: balanced, reliable, fact-based reporting according to the "media bias chart"
"You're being sarcastic, but really:
-Balanced? One headline per worldview, what could be more fair?
-Reliable? Mainstream Media covering up the atrocities of those in power? That's exactly what I expect from them and they do not disappoint!
-Fact-based? You can see it in action here! They start with a fact to base their story on, then corrupt it irrevocably with journalistic tricks and sophistry until it misrepresents reality entirely
So I think someone should apologize to media bias chart..."
The chart that conflates centrism with being unbiased.
Classic genocide move, get rid of that big, scary number whenever you can. Never let them count the bodies.
IOF will not rest until the last Palestinian surviving is Mr. Khamas, reporting the death toll.
Tbf, Reuters might be avoiding a drone strike on their reporters
What a fucking joke
