    Since you didn’t link the news article to provide any context, I’m just gonna say “thieves get arrested. More at 10.”

      yeah, so it’s a link to Inside Edition, which is the longest-running syndicated news program and has been running since 1989 and is currently syndicated by CBS.

      You can verify it’s the same channel as their official channel because Inside Edition’s website (https://www.insideedition.com/ see YT link in top-left corner) links directly to it.

      Media Bias Fact Check rates them generally factual – https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/inside-edition/

      It’s not especially highly rated as TV news, saw it described as “the fast food of TV news,” but I didn’t see anything that described it as substantially non-factual.

      What’s your issue with Inside Edition, again?

        They can’t answer that, because the source was never the issue, they never even clicked through to see what the source was. Them being a bootlicker who can’t help but jump to the defence of and make excuses for the pigs is the only reason for this thread…

        Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

        Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

        Yes, I saw the YouTube link. I did not click it, because I want to see the actual source. The “news story” you are qouting.

          It’s… a link to the news story. If you bothered to click it instead of bitching about not getting a different link, you’d already have what you’re asking for.

          Surely, you can give a more credible source than YouTube for your, no doubt, totally founded claim.

            News channels have been using YouTube to upload clips and segments for many many years now. But you probably don’t like YouTube because it’s big bad to folk like you.

            Go to a retirement home already. News organizations have been using YouTube for years. Newspapers are only a thing still, for people like you.
