That's awful. The irony is that a mezuzah was traditionally supposed to protect the home. Stay strong.

Isn't that true of all pathogens, from an evolutionary perspective? It's better for the virus to evolve to kill fewer hosts, as that means more hosts to spread and reproduce from.

That’s… just wrong.

Journalists have an obligation to independently verify news before reporting on it. Sensitive news that can inflame hostilities and trigger World War 3 and millions of deaths is absolutely paramount you get it right.

The journalist was rightly fired for posting clumsy information from his doctor’s appointment and not being crystal clear that he was sharing a LEAD worth someone else following up on, and not STORY he had personally verified. His language to his editors was super confusing on this.

But the editors themselves did not verify anything, or even check his source. In their rush to post an exclusive they did not once stop to think about the impact of their actions. The entire news org should honestly be restructured and whomever was responsible for setting and overseeing editorial process and integrity should be dismissed.

This isn’t a fucking joke article on who Kim Kardashian is hooking up with.

Interesting way to apply generalized bigotry to school attendance.

It doesn’t work that way. You’re just giving them a platform to inspire other idiots who also want to see their name in lights. Want to know the real reason school shooters are more of a thing in the USA then Germany? Because in Germany the press doesn’t publish the perpetrator’s name.
