Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! 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.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Some people are unhappy with Newsweek links. So I used AP
Your Newsweek post from earlier cited AP.
Some people here are unhappy with Newsweek. So I used AP. If the mods feel this is a duplicate I am totally fine with them deleting either this one or the other one.
I removed the other one, it had no engagement.
Thank you. I noticed that more and more people are becoming unhappy with Newsweek.
Gee I wonder whose alt this is
Newsweek is in a really weird space right now, they aren't WHOLLY unreliable like a New York Post or Daily Mail, but they definitely seem to be sliding that way.
They were always 2nd tier compared to a Time Magazine or U.S. News and World Report, but not unreliable.
That seems to have changed in 2018 when Dev Pragad and Johnathan Davis took over.
Here's the worrying bit:
https://www.niemanlab.org/2024/04/inside-newsweek-ai-experiment/
“Newsweek believes that AI tools can help journalists work faster, smarter and more creatively,” reads the updated standards page. “We firmly believe that soon all journalists will be working with AI in some form and we want our newsroom to embrace these technologies as quickly as is possible in an ethical way.”
My prediction is, within 2 years, Newsweek will officially become AI slop and can be safely disregarded as a valid source.
I think you're right.
You should be able to figure out that's a duplicate on your own. It's literately the same article.
Nothing to figure out. Like I said; some people here don't like Newsweek lately, and don't want to give them clicks. This is a direct AP news article, from AP news site. So no one has to click Newsweek. If the mods feel this is too much of a duplicate, then I totally support them either deleting this one or the Newsweek version. I'm happy to delete the Newsweek one, but I'm not sure if that's allowed in the community since it's been up for a bit. If the mods are ok with me deleting the Newsweek one, I can totally do that too.
Do the conservative communities (including the one you mod) think the same?
Does that matter? Because that has nothing to do with this article or this community. Different communities and different instances have different rules and guidelines. I'm not sure what point you're trying to make since my post history is public and I've never hidden it. And again, has nothing to do with the content of this AP News article.
Yes it matters. If you're trying to please one community, why post the AP article to the others? Or your own?
No offence, but I think you are throwing a whole lot of hate towards a trivial matter.
I was just trying to make a simple point, he kept repeating himself, and I asked a new question. Do what you want with that.
Different communities. Different guidelines. This conversation is over. Move on.
