Default E-News Snapshot in time:
Simple idea. I'm gonna list some *cough* major online news sites.

Please take the time to do all 5 listed below.

I'll start:

Monday, August 6th, 12:40 AM

FOX: Vehicle seen circling neighborhood the night of Mollie Tibbetts' disappearance, neighbor says.

CNN: Melania Trump's split with her husband over LeBron James is the most glaring example of a growing trend.

BBC: Scores killed in Indonesia island quake.

TMZ: Facts of Life star Charlotte Ray dead at 92.

THE ONION: Grandmother Can’t Believe She Hung On This Long For Granddaughter’s Lame-Ass Wedding.

I like this idea, but I don't visit E-news sites so I won't be participating.

Are you sure you didn't switch CNN and TMZ? Jesus.

He's basically posting the articles from different news sites in order to compare the importance of certain topics that these news sites write about.

For example, you'd probably see more about Trump and impeachment from someone like CNN or w/e, but you'd probably never see it on Fox News.

So picking and choosing articles to fit whatever point he wants to make?

This is another Trump thread.

You didn't read my post I guess. It's just a comparison of what the site feels is most important for that day. It can sometimes differ immensely.

This is the second time you've said this.

These sites run several articles. How do you decide which one article to post?
