(www.theguardian.com)
Are you tired of clickbait and the current state of journalism? This community is meant to remind you that excellent journalism still happens. While not sticking to a specific topic, the focus will be on high-quality articles and discussion around their topics.
Politics is allowed, but should not be the main focus of the community.
Submissions should be articles of medium length or longer. As in, it should take you 5 minutes or more to read it. Article series’ would also qualify.
Please either submit an archive link, or include it in your summary.
Rules:
As someone who currently lives in the Balkans, I can confirm that bus drivers are very reliable when it comes to parcel transporting. Even companies use them when the package has to arrive at the destination on the same day, which is something even parcel services cannot guarantee.
