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.

Mar a Lago. Mar a Lago lost 10 billion dollars of valuation due to the documentary!
Hah, yeah. Today, anyway. Tomorrow it'll be something else. It's the magical $10 billion: if you skim through the linked filing what it amounts to is the BBC pointing out that for all the twisting and turning and various statements on the part of the plaintiff, they can't or won't produce the first bit of evidential documentation. He sued over this and that claim, but now everyone is just supposed to take his word for it.
At this point the plaintiff's case basically comes down to, "Well it's not this anymore but it's still that so we don't have to produce evidence for this, and we thought it was caused by this but no it's really that so you don't need to see that either, and we thought the harm was this but no it's absolutely that, we mean it this time so you should just take our word for it," but that magical $10 billion damage amount mysteriously stays exactly the same throughout. It's a shell game on paper played by his lawyers.
In reality, if Mar-a-Lago lost $10 billion dollars, it's just because it's management was just that extraordinarily shitty. Same goes for the rest of that putrefying fuck's "businesses" he's managed to turn into black holes that suck cash with zero return. He did that to a fucking casino, lol. I think it's his superpower (that, and clearing out the Oval Office with a shart on demand, no other president has shown that skill). He made the White House look like a goddamn Taiwanese buffet (nothing against Taiwanese buffets, just not what one wants to see in the halls of government). Dude can't manage his own way out of a greasy Mickie D's bag -- but sure, it was all the BBC's fault, lol.
