In reply to the discussion: Democratic Underground Banned From Reddit/Politics Forum [View all]The Straight Story
(48,121 posts)As I mentioned in another thread - most of our posts here link to other news outlets (local tv/paper/etc). Their idea is to limit the in between sites and only allow news reporting (to some extent).
I think they jumped the shark with more than a few of them, as do other folks there.
But with reddit, anyone can just make their own subreddit and moderate it how they see fit. Someone already created /r/politic (versus r/politicS).
I have my own subreddit there which I generally don't want others posting in (will be used for stories from our radio show).
Have posted many stories here on DU I found on reddit and only link to the source and not reddit itself (unless it is an AMA or something). Linking to the reddit thread won't actually show the story but the comments and link (you post the title and link only there in general).
