If you’re interested in assisting moderation of any of the communities I moderate/own shoot me a message.

I don’t know where he would get a ring.

He clearly still wants a pretty big role in the offense wherever he is, and has now quit on 3 teams in a row. I’m not sure why any contender with a good culture would want to add that. It’s not like he’s some incredible spot-up shooter that could fall back into a primarily 3-point guy, his career percentages are drastically better off the dribble. It’s not like you’re adding the corpse of Steph Curry here, who would presumably still be able to launch 3s at a high % clip.

I am dead inside. Thank goodness baseball and football can hold my attention through February without worrying about the dumpster fire Sixers

We encourage people to do this for Fox News links.

While Fox News isn’t actively blacklisted at this time, our stance is that we do prefer other sources/outlets if the same story is available. As I mentioned in another comment, we read both of these articles and they contain basically the same content, so we left this post up, and that is basically how these posts are being evaluated at this time (checking to make sure they aren’t misleading/reporting incorrect information).

Also as mentioned in my other comment, we do also understand that a lot of users do not want to click Fox News links and support them, so I do also encourage people to post links to other outlets in the comments so users can still read the article if they choose to do so.

Our stance is that we prefer if people use other outlets if the same story is available elsewhere, although it isn’t outright blacklisted (at this time).

We skimmed this article and the article posted above from BBC, and they contain basically the same information so we are leaving it up as it seems this article wasn’t written in bad faith.

That said, we do understand that users do not want to click Fox News links and support them.

This is a constant talking point between the mods that is actively monitored and discussed on whether we should continue to allow it, but for the time being, we are just doing our best to encourage users to use other outlets and reading the articles and comparing them to what other outlets have reported to ensure they aren’t misleading or reporting incorrect information before we decide to leave it up.

Fox News is indeed on our list of “not-preferred” sources, although not blacklisted currently. The cocept basically started with this chart, and us determining that we’d prefer if this community didn’t constantly have posts from some of the most biased outlets out there, and really began as “we prefer if you use sources that aren’t in the furthest left and furthest right columns”, and we encourage users to only use sources from those columns if they’re unable to find the same story from a different outlet. We needed to set something up in stone though, so as I said, there is a blacklist, but it’s not extensive at this point in time but will regularly be updated as needed.

All of that said, I googled the article title and quickly found multiple other stories on this, but most of the top ones either linked to the Fox News article or to a Fox News local subsidiary with essentially the same article. Upon reading a few other ones, it appears this link and those contain basically the same content, so I’ll leave this one up.

Most of these will have to be evaluated like above on a case-by-case basis, but again for anyone reading this, we prefer if you find another news outlet (and that isn’t just Fox News).

Edit - The blacklist is open for users to view here, and the bot will automatically remove posts from any sources that are currently or in the future added to this list.

Edit 2 - Nevermind, the post/article title is incredibly misleading, the woman lived. Removed.

Not great, but good enough to check out.

This seems to be the floor for Apple TV shows, with the ceiling being “this is absolutely incredible”. The quality of their shows (again, from the floor) is really only challenged by HBO

I think your number is a bit off.

Edit to reflect the true severity or the comment is getting removed for misinformation.
