Off-topic, but damn HN... I submitted the CNBC and CBSNews versions of this. One got zero up-votes, and the other got flagged.

  Now this one's flagged. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    Oh well, I can see why HN wouldn't want every passing Trump scandal to show up on the front page, but this is pretty big.

    Yea it's off topic. It belongs on reddit, not HN.

  I think the BBC is pretty well regarded on HN; I can recall seeing many posts on the front page.

  Not surprising, given this is the perfect example of the "If they'd cover it on TV news, it's probably off-topic." rule?
  • mfoy_ 8y ago
    I can't argue with that
