Not really sure what you're talking about here. r/worldnews, r/news, r/UkraineWarVideoReport, r/CombatFootage, r/inthenews, r/RussiaUkraineWar2022, r/Ukraine, r/CrazyFuckingVideos, r/UkrainianConflict, and even r/Damthatsinteresting have posted about it today with thousands of upvotes each.
r/WorldNews even has a stickied megathread about today's news, and sorting by "Hot" on their sub only has a handful of posts not talking about the Wagner Group.
Yeah, news about the war is one of the only reasons I still hold on to my reddit account. It may not appear in /r/all, but those subs contain a shitton of relevant content and active discussion about it.
I think this might be it. Assumed it wasn't there because it wasn't in r/all right away - which in turn might be a side effect of all the changes reddit put in to hide protest content from r/all.
So folks casually browsing and not knowing the subs may not see the news right away there, and give up and look at other sites instead. I'm happy to call this another win for the protest.
Remember when Reddit had the breaking stories LONG before everyone else?
Honestly, that was becoming an issue as of late. Unless you know were to look (specific subreddits) /r/all took forever for news to appear. I remember when shit was on /r/all almost instantly.
Damn, ordinarily I'd follow this coverage at r/anime_titties
there's anime_titties@lemmy.world and a similar one on kbin, but they arent very active yet
Protip: don’t make anything of whether something is or isn’t covered in a particular news source, particularly when the news source isn’t even a real news source (as Reddit isn’t).
What is the best magazine(s) to follow this unfold?
This lemmy instance seems to be covering a lot
https://kbin.social/m/world@lemmy.world seems to have some stuff, can't say it's best or not though.
fyi here's the kbin localized url, https://kbin.social/m/random/p/535360/Kbin-covering-all-the-current-news-and-rumours-out-of
This raises one of the problems with company-sponsored media that has been a problem since Pulitzer and Hearst. Your bosses and sponsors will always have opinions about what news is fit to print.
So during the cold war never a bad thing was said about GE (we bring good things to life!) despite how they were pushing our elected officials to buy more nuclear warheads, even when we had plenty. GE bought a lot of commercial time from all three networks and no one wanted to disrupt that cash flow.
This might be a benefit from federated social media, that burying a story becomes impossible requiring only a bit of vigilance from its end users.
I don't think Reddit is under Russia thumb, but a lot of the bots and troll farms that generate a lot of the content are
The front page this morning of /all is full of posts about it.
