Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
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 biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
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. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. 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 or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

Lol. Are people still talking about this nothing? WTF
Yes, people are still talking about the FCC chair and the president violating the First Amendment with exactly zero consequences.
When did fascists come to this platform? Suddenly they seem to have slithered forth
Its like a parasite , if you dont fight them from the start they spread and rot the place from within.. old story i heard from a bar , if you let one nazi drink in peace , they will bring their friends and crowd out the people who feel unwelcome , and in the end you'll just have a nazi bar
Yes, we care about the 1st Amendment, thanks for asking :)
Does the first amendment protect novelty television?
... yes? Very much indeed so?
I didn't know. Thanks.
Yes, the existence of Fox "news" and most right wing radio proves it.
It does when it’s the government who is making calls to cancel shows.
The first amendment protects all private entities from the government limiting what they can say barring a few exceptions. Making fun of someone is not an exception. Threatening to fine the hell out of someone for making a joke, ESPECIALLY if you think they have low ratings and no one watches them anyway? Thats definitely violating the first amendment.
Tl;dr Either astroturfing or dumb.
Troll account. ez block.
And people are still talking about your hero getting blasted. The world continues to spin.
People are still talking about Zappa, too? What a world.
Lol. Are people still asking this nothing question? WTF
Hey all apropos of nothing, I enjoy using the bloc function liberally on Lemmy. It’s really wonderful.
Yeah, move on to important topics, like the Epstein files.
Protesting Jimmy Kimmel getting an extended paid vacation is the only thing that's left for liberals to do.
They can't protest to end genocide, that's illegal.
They can't protest in defense of LGBTQ rights, that's divisive and unelectable.
They can't protest over the environment, it's bad for ~~big business~~ the jobs economy.
They can't even protest over inflation, because the BLS isn't allowed to release bad numbers anymore.
All liberals have left is Kimmel.
What I see here is straw man after straw man. Do you even talk to anyone in real life?
Impressive collection of whining
The internet downvote is their strongest rebuttal.
