    These are the pieces that feel like they’re designed to be dramatic, and push that feeling onto the readers. They’re not fact-based pieces, yet still get published alongside fact-based pieces on MSNBC. They’re then posted on targeted social media, where it typically isn’t checked for facts.

    LUCKILY this headline says it’s an opinion, but take notice of how many headlines here don’t have it, but link to opinions.

      WTF? So you object to an opinion piece that is clearly labeled to being published at all? Or you object the fact that some other opinion pieces aren’t labeled as such which has nothing at all to do with this post?

      They’re not fact-based pieces, yet still get published alongside fact-based pieces on MSNBC.

      Have you ever read a newspaper? Opinions, marked as such, have been published right along news since long before you or I were born.

      Do you expect opinions to be put on a entirely separate website? Perhaps a brand new .opinion domain suffix should be made because you think that understanding an opinion piece clearly labeled as such is actually opinion is too much of a strain.

        Yes, I believe opinion pieces should be labeled appropriately and possibly placed on a separate community. Not sure why that’s such a controversial thought.

          Really? You’re not sure? Let me spell it out for you.

          You are repeatedly doing your whining about a post that is labeled as OPINION in the title. It is the very first word and you’re in a Politics community (for fuck’s sake) where damn near everything is opinion. What’s more, you want everyone else on Lemmy to follow your instructions and place posts you object to in a separate community. That kind of arrogance is astounding.

          Hope that helps.
