I mean I'm not really a fan myself, but it can't all be alternating BBC and Guardian stories.

I could not find this story on the BBC news app, but I did hear about it on Radio 4.

As long as you have adblockers, what does it matter? I get the "no clicks" kind of protest, but that only works if they're able to serve ads. If you remove the ads, then they're not getting the impression, which ultimately means they're paying for you to visit the site.

They're a bunch of xenophobic, racist shit-stirring cunts, not a news source

Balance doesn't mean giving equal platform to every racist bigot though, there has to be a line drawn somewhere. Wikipedia doesn't accept the Mail as a source, personally I don't think it should be accepted here.

General community for news/discussion in the UK.

Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.

Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.

Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.

Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.

If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.

Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.

Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.
