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. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.


2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.


Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.


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. Clickbait titles may be removed.


Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.


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, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.


7. No duplicate posts.


If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. 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 or news aggregators.


All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.


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.

Some crazy footage coming out, just such a massive explosion as the plane had just taken off and was full of fuel:

I live about ten miles from here, closer to center city Philly. So, a few of my relatives who evidently lack any ability to look at a map were asking if I was okay and sending me info before I heard about it.

What’s so nuts about this is the missile-like trajectory of this aircraft. Even more than 9/11, this relatively tiny incident feels more like what so many other countries experience so frequently.

Dude the 2nd and 4th videos were fucking nuts. Holy shit.

I can't imagine being in the shoes of the people that were just walking out of their friends door after dinner, heard that shit coming, and then turned around and saw that.

Walking through the aftermath must have been surreal. Hearing everyone responding with, "I don't know what the fuck happened" really hit.

The longer version of the third video is insane

In a statement, President Donald Trump said his administration was "totally engaged".

We're ready to call it DEI... all we need is one woman or minority pilot or Controller. We're also ready to say it's common sense to blame DEI if there aren't any.

This is so said :" A medical transport jet transporting a child who had just completed treatment for a life-threatening condition, her mother and four others crashed into a Philadelphia neighborhood shortly after takeoff Friday evening, exploding in a fireball that engulfed several homes." https://apnews.com/article/philadelphia-plane-crash-medical-transport-8617dab53471190832dd73db149489fa
