What is global news?
Something that happened or was uncovered recently anywhere in the world. It doesn't have to have global implications. Just has to be informative in some way.
Post guidelines
Title format
Post title should mirror the news source title.
URL format
Post URL should be the original link to the article (even if paywalled) and archived copies left in the body. It allows avoiding duplicate posts when cross-posting.
[Opinion] prefix
Opinion (op-ed) articles must use [Opinion] prefix before the title.
Rules
1. English only
Title and associated content has to be in English.
2. No social media posts

3. Respectful communication
All communication has to be respectful of differing opinions, viewpoints, and experiences.
4. Inclusivity
Everyone is welcome here regardless of age, body size, visible or invisible disability, ethnicity, sex characteristics, gender identity and expression, education, socio-economic status, nationality, personal appearance, race, caste, color, religion, or sexual identity and orientation.
5. Ad hominem attacks
Any kind of personal attacks are expressly forbidden. If you can't argue your position without attacking a person's character, you already lost the argument.

I sincerely wish news articles would stop linking to X posts, and instead just mirror the content, or something.
Yes, I don't understand why people keep using this platforn.
It's probably an overhead or creative licensing thing. But it sucks. And if you're a day late to the article, it's a gamble that the video hasn't already been removed.
The same reason people keep using FB: it's a dumpster fire if toxic waste and they like it that way
And Twitter posts as sources is always very sketchy...
It's Al-Jazeera. Their logo is their in the video, and the Arabic is a newscaster talking.
The source is already gone so doesn't really matter now
Hamas is using AI for their propaganda very often, so its not actually safe to say its real just because of a watermark and a voice...
can you substantiate this claim?
You must be thinking of Israel
Article said it’s a must see video, I went to the website and it linked to X.
Shame… I guess I won’t see it
