MODERATORS
No editorials or articles which are little more than third party editorials.
Editorials usually end up as:
Someone has an opinion, this isn't news.
Articles which are little more than:
This bloke has an opinion and I'm going to write about it! (which is often a negative topic) also isn't news and something that worldnews on reddit struggled with. The sub was constantly flooded with topics which were just: Joe Blowhard thinks everyone sucks and some other right wing nonsense.
There was no news there either than a third party stating that someone else had an opinion.
