The Article.

As far as the mod action here go, it signals that this is not a place for actual discussion and shareworthy news.

They are proving that their community is not for learning news and seeing stuff you would not otherwise had know it. This is a community to share only the things we all know/believe in.

The article is by CNN based on about 80 pages report by Dinah Project and shared and discussed by other outlets:

And other outlets.

The conclusion for me here is clear.

    Clearly overreach by the mods LW World News. I am honestly surprised deleted the article.

    IMO CNN is not the best source, BBC or AP would have been better, but that doesn’t mean one should automatically delete anything from CNN.

      It was removed not because the media source was unreliable, but because of the report source.

        Quality moderation would have made that clear when there are several different possibilities baked into one rule.

        I wouldn’t go that far. They may have a bias on this issue, but you can hardly call them a Zionist front.

        Trying reading news in russian (by russians). That’s what I call an imperialist front, even allegedly liberal, independent russian media occasionally crack and go on pro-imperialist rants.

        There was is a famous opposition TV channel (banned in russia since Feb 2022) were the presenter suddenly went on a rant about “how we need to help our poor boys [the invading russian military]”.

        It’s all a matter of context and frame of reference. :)
