US-specific news, no politics

Rules:

  1. No politics. Nothing about governments, parties, or politicians. I love politics but this is not a politics community, there are plenty of those. [email protected] is recommended.
  2. Reliable sources only.
  3. Articles are good. Self-posts or blog posts by professionals or journalists are fine. Memes or random blogs, no.
  4. Post title must match the headline. Edits for clarity are fine.
  5. Don't be a jerk.
  6. No racism, no bigotry, no spam.
  7. Be productive.

It's an interesting question, to me, whether the newspapers are ones that are trying to just be newspapers, or ones that are taking part in the massive centralized propaganda operation that is most of American media. The fact that there are so many "small-town" papers all centered under a single corporate umbrella which can be taken out in a centralized way, makes me a little inclined to think it might be the second one, but I have no idea. It's an interesting question which will determine quite a bit how I feel about this development.
