    I can’t help but notice that Five singles out “lack of transparency” while ignoring “poor sourcing” and “one-sided reporting”. This is a common tactic.

    Any responsible journalistic entity should be confirming their sources, and giving any accused a chance to give their own side of a story.

    Looks like a case where poorly sourced article getting removed, with invitation to repost with a more reputable source… so do so with a better source. Or is the underlying article itself leaning too much towards propaganda that there is no more reputable source? and if that is the case, then is it really !news worthy?

    Looks more like you posted a garbage source?

    edit - for example. Do you consider Fox News to report a balanced view? Or GBNews? Zerohedge?

      Thecradle seems like a fine source, even MBFC doesn’t actually have arguments against it other than “left leaning”.

      “Balanced” is some bullshit American view of media that isn’t related to factuallity.

    “Siding with Marc Zuckerberg” is a pretty shitty argument. They may be evil but that doesn’t mean I oppose every single of their opinion.

    I know MBFC is a controversial tool, but there must be some kind of moderation, otherwise you end up like [email protected]

    ITT: liberals finally choosing to discard their last tether to reality because it doesn’t support their nihilist fascism-supporting warped world view
