I am curious, why is HN keeping articles about the shooting off the front page?
- jakebasile 9y agoIt’s very likely being flagged off the front page. Flagging can be used on topics that are guaranteed to start a flamewar and boy is this an evergreen flame festival topic.
- toomanybeersies 9y agoI gather it's because they generally fall into general news, rather than things that would be specifically interesting to HN, and also because stories about mass shootings always tend to degenerate into people just insulting each other.
