How to use the News Room

This forum is for discussing current events, be they politics, disasters, scientific breakthroughs or something else. If it's a topic that would be appropriate in a serious newspaper or news magazine that doesn't fit into another one of our forums, it probably belongs here.

If it involves entertainment, sports, etc., it's likely best suited for Arts and Entertainment or Games and Sports

In tone, expect this forum to be a cross between the Crucible and the Thunderdome. You can argue and you can rage, but if you're derailing conversations or approaching discussions in a disingenuous way you may be told to stop or remove yourself from the thread.
