zephyreks@lemmy.mlMto World News@lemmy.ml•[META] State of the lemmy.ml worldnews Community12·10 months agoI do think we don’t have a clear policy on opinion pieces and that’s absolutely something we should work towards. Right now it’s more of a case-by-case basis.
If you could point to some specific examples that would be great!

His stint at The Guardian where he broke the Snowden leaks?
His work at The Intercept that revealed the corrupt dealings that led to Brazil’s Lula losing the election and being imprisoned?
Or is it his appearances on US media, where he’s on record for questioning the efficacy of Russian interference in the 2016 election (which IIRC is backed by a study in Nature Communications) and criticizing Israeli influence in US politics?
I’m not disagreeing with you, but you’re not exactly providing much in the way of evidence outside of your own opinion.

zephyreks@lemmy.mlMto World News@lemmy.ml•Chinese scientists develop cure for diabetes, insulin patient becomes medicine-free in just 3 months41·11 months agoThe articles suggest that it may be beneficial for Type 1, but that’s unconfirmed. The nature of early-stage clinical trials is that people don’t really know how things will work. That’s the point of the trials.

Any such treatment, even if it works, would take decades to pass through the various approval stages before being released to the public.

DolphinMath is a propagandist that uses MBFC to whitewash propaganda. We also already know this.
I’ll allow this, but IMO once you get to 200k+ subscribers you should really consider launching an actual website. Ex-The Intercept and ex-HuffPost journalists should know better.
