E-News Snapshot in time:
 
Simple idea. I'm gonna list some *cough* major online news sites.

Please take the time to do all 5 listed below.

I'll start:

Monday, August 6th, 12:40 AM

FOX: Vehicle seen circling neighborhood the night of Mollie Tibbetts' disappearance, neighbor says.

CNN: Melania Trump's split with her husband over LeBron James is the most glaring example of a growing trend.

BBC: Scores killed in Indonesia island quake.

TMZ: Facts of Life star Charlotte Ray dead at 92.

THE ONION: Grandmother Can’t Believe She Hung On This Long For Granddaughter’s Lame-Ass Wedding.

Don't forget Breitbart, Chula.

I like this idea, but I don't visit E-news sites so I won't be participating.

Mindfulness 08-06-2018 08:53 AM

Don't forget Boxden, Chula.

Are you sure you didn't switch CNN and TMZ? Jesus.

I don't get it.

Key 08-06-2018 12:04 PM

He's basically posting the articles from different news sites in order to compare the importance of certain topics that these news sites write about.

For example, you'd probably see more about Trump and impeachment from someone like CNN or w/e, but you'd probably never see it on Fox News.

Cuthbert 08-06-2018 12:08 PM

So picking and choosing articles to fit whatever point he wants to make?

This is another Trump thread.

Key 08-06-2018 12:11 PM

You didn't read my post I guess. It's just a comparison of what the site feels is most important for that day. It can sometimes differ immensely.

This is the second time you've said this.

These sites run several articles. How do you decide which one article to post?

You choose them. Open your eyes, sheeple. Or something.

They report on more than one thing.

BBC's headlines are the weather, Boris Johnson and cricket.

Go to any of these sites and there will be a TOP STORY headline. That's what you post.
