MODERATORS
Not everyone on the Internet is American and the original is linked. Do you just need something to complain about?
When talking about events in the US, about US politics, days before a very contentious US election, when we know there's all sorts of foreign influence going on -- posting a link that contains "pravda" could very easily be dismissed as propaganda at first glance. I'm coming to this post a bit later, and the double-checking of sources has already been done, but if I was here earlier, I would have insisted on it.
Do you not think primary sources should be linked above secondary sources?
Would you trust an American article summing up an article about Ukrainian politics from European Pravda, which has Ukrainian journalists writing about Ukraine from Ukraine, over just the European Pravda article?
I would hope not.
I'd trust an American article summing up an article about a Ukrainian dressing up as a garbage man, because it's not really that important and I don't feel obligated to do a deeper dive to understand it
It's really not that deep
That really doesn't answer my question:
Would you trust an American article summing up an article about Ukrainian politics from European Pravda, which has Ukrainian journalists writing about Ukraine from Ukraine, over just the European Pravda article?
But we can add to that: even if someone else told you it wasn't that deep?
It's an article about funny orange man sitting in a garbage truck on a web forum. I reject the question. It's not that deep. Go repost with an article you prefer if you're that bothered.
