News
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.

Was he MAGA or a good guy?
He was maga.
Oh, OK. Nothing of value was lost except for sullied childhood memories.
Yep, back 35 plus years ago. When we still knew the wrestling was fake but you could pretend that Hogan may have been a decent human being.
And anti-union.
Not just a magat, he was truly a piece of shit in his life, he also snitched to prevent a union from forming for professional wrestlers. Cared about no one but himself his entire life.
ventura tried to help, but half-assed it and ditched the wrestlers once they wernt going to unionize, because he had sag-aftra as a backup if dint fall through, the wrestlers dint have backup plan, so they were scared of vince
He was at the RNC last year and ripped off his shirt to reveal a MAGA or Trump shirt (I think it was one of those but it was definitely pro Trump even if it wasn't directly MAGA or Trump text). So he was definitely an asshole. Even for more reasons than just being MAGA.
Hardcore MAGA
For the record, not everyone who isn't MAGA is a "good guy".
What does MAGA have to do with it? He was an asshole. That's what he was mainly known for. The world is better without him.
There’s your standard issue asshole, then there’s MAGAts. They’re thermonuclear assholes.
Name of my future grindcore band
he was on stage at the RNC?
Someone being a MAGAt is a very clear way to tell someone is an absolute shithead. Good people don't subscribe to blind hatred and hurting others they don't like.
It's a valid question, but you could be a bit more subtle
Nah. Fuck the MAGAts. They should all fuck off and die.
Subtlety is for fucking cowards.
