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 right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion. We have an actively updated blocklist, which you can see here: https://lemmy.world/post/2246130 if you feel like any website is missing, contact the mods. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted seperately but not to the post body.
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.
Posts which titles don’t match the source won’t be removed, but the autoMod will notify you, and if your title misrepresents the original article, the post will be deleted. If the site changed their headline, the bot might still contact you, just ignore it, we won’t delete your post.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.

7. No duplicate posts.
If a source you used was already posted by someone else, the autoMod will leave a message. Please remove your post if the autoMod is correct. 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.
The auto mod will contact you if a link shortener is detected, please delete your post if they are right.

then pay for it.
I'd love a package to get access to all sorts of news, but each news source seems individually subscription-based, and that all adds up. So I just stick with AP and BBC.
If I could pay like $25/mo and get access to all the popular news sources I'd do it.
That's just the thing though. The "real" journalism people are missing now, used to cost more than 25$ a month for ONE newspaper subscription. And the printing isn't the expensive part.
People aren't ready to pay for that level of journalism anymore, so it doesn't exist anymore.
Yeah, that's never going to happen.
The media is too centralised, owned by too few people with too much money and an agenda to run the world.
We were raised with the notion that information must be free, but forgot to figure out how to pay for food for the ones producing that information.
Once the rivers of gold (real-estate advertising and pages and pages of personal adverts) dried up, journalism was doomed and freedom of the press with it.
The closest we still have is public broadcasting, but that is being decimated by Neo Liberal claptrap beholden to interest groups.
If we don't figure this out soon, democracy as we know it will vanish, if it isn't too late already.
