“Get ready to not freak out. On Wednesday, October 4 at 2:20 p.m. ET, every TV, radio and cellphone in the United States should blare out the distinctive, jarring electronic warning tone of an emergency alert.”
Maybe include the country in the title…
Well, Rule 4 says, “4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source.” And the source didn’t put the country in the title.
This indeed raises an important issue with our current rules. I will be discussing a potential change to those rules with other mods to make it more clear that, if the article isn’t very clear, you are allowed to alter the title (within reason).
If you could edit the title to make clear this is about the US, that would be great (:
Sorry for the confusion.
Can you put something in the sidebar to clarify whether this community is primarily for US news? We do have the worldnews community explicitly for non-US news.
The rule should probably be that it’s required to be as descriptive or more as the title of the article. If you want to edit out click-bait, that should be allowed. As long as it’s still just as descriptive it should be fine. (I understand this would be hard to enforce though.)
Perfect. I have a 1-on-1 meeting with my manager during that time.
No, it’s not a national conspiracy to infect people with nanoparticles.
Lol
Of course not! This is how the Greys mind control us. Then they go back into their hollow Earth!
Cool. Another alert that will make it more likely that I’ll ignore an actual alert.
My phone keeps sending me amber alert/silver alert messages from the other side of the state. I live in the Rio Grande Valley in Texas. I get these alerts from El Paso. El Paso is closer to San Diego than it is to me. Las Cruces, just on the other side of the TX/NM border from El Paso, won’t get an alert but I will.
