For things that are "hmmm".

Rule 1: All post titles except for meta posts should be just plain "hmmm" and nothing else, no emotes, no capitalisation, no extending it to "hmmmm" etc.

I agree with the sentiment, but I'm not sure how to make it work. Journalists need to make a living, but if it's distributed free, where's that money going to come from?

damn if only we could subsidize journalism instead of oil and meat

oh well i guess

We could but that brings its own moral issues. Can you trust a journalist to be truthful and critical of a government that signs their paycheque?

We have that in Germany. Everyone pays a monthly fee that is not controlled by the government to create unbiased news and media

with sufficient legislation, sure. Do you inherently distrust NPR?
