Philly.com VS CNN

Is this legit? "inquirer.com" seems like a shady source. Source: about 1 year ago

Applications rose this year. By quite a bit. They did for all Philly area schools that divulge them. Was an article on this on inquirer.com a couple of months ago. Source: about 2 years ago

I'll take your word for it. :) The inquirer.com comments are a cesspool. I'm sure they aren't better on Facebook. Source: over 2 years ago

Thanks. IIRC, the reason I needed Wipr is because Adguard didn't block cookies for my cit's local news site (inquirer.com) that I read daily. Wipr does. Source: over 2 years ago

Observe how news media treat story like this. https://time.com - first page, main story, no photos https://www.reuters.com - no mention https://apnews.com - first page, 2nd block in list, no photos https://www.nytimes.com - second page, tiny block in list, no photos https://www.washingtonpost.com - second page, tiny block, no photos https://www.theguardian.com/world - no mention https://www.aljazeera.com - first... - Source: Hacker News / 2 months ago

If it's any consolation, it was top billing on cnn.com yesterday, which is where I first saw it. Entire top left of the screen was the woman's face and a huge headline. Now it's buried in a couple lines below the (digital) fold. Source: 5 months ago

Try and force the page by entering a url in the browser such as cnn.com . Also, try loading a full browser and trying to surf. What type of phone are you on? Source: 5 months ago

FWIW, I had to disable the Wipr content filtering on cnn.com to see the web site. Guess I'll get my news fix from wapo.com, now. Source: 5 months ago

I don't know what EasyList or uBlock are (i.e., I don't use those), but I got blocked by cnn.com as well. Firefox on Mac. Turns out it was the "I don't care about cookies" extension (automatically accept consent requests). Once I disabled that for cnn, it worked again. Source: 5 months ago
