Those helis in front look like Hueys and the US hasnt used those since vietnam

Many countries still use them in their armed forces, including Colombia

Hang on

Comments are strange

The poster appears to be thanking the US but doesnt provide any additional details or confirmation

Posts in spanish appear to be doubting the claim of these being marines

some claim that the helis in the video are the colombians providing humanitarian aid

"US pilots are pretty good at staying in formations and that group of Blackhawks didn't even resemble a flight formation."

oof

also its strange to just have a video of US helicopters

normally they're escorted by gunships

theres a spanish weeb in there

which is amusing

I am the editor of my high school newspaper and news website and I really like talking to real world journalists and trying to get tips on how I can write more important stories. That is why I asked. (Didn't want to post in general because it would have interrupted the conversation)

And just talking to them in general about the world and society and all that

"That is why I asked. " asked what?

In general I asked if Timcast ever talks in the chatrooms

It happens. But I haven't seen it in awhile. If he does, he usually just briefly drops in general.

I wouldn't hang around general though. Too many people and most of it is garbage. Honestly, this server has been on a decline for awhile.

Yeah that is what I presumed coming into the server and seeing a general chat

But thank you for telling me

General is a mess

At least it is somewhat intellectually engaging

i don't know if there's too many people or what but i just ignore it

Same. Plus the quality of people declined.

i'm mostly here for memes now

Its a thread with lots of names

This is going to be a mess

Lemon you were talking about writing more important stories

What do you consider to be the most important sort of story?

The most impactful to readers to let them stay informed about their local situation? The most impactful to society so that people can discuss larger happenings and ideas? The most recent news so that people dont get surprised by major developments?

I think the most important news stories as of now are the informative ones. (Excuse the long paragraph) For example someone shot a gun into the air in the student parking lot at my high school a few weeks ago. As soon as the gun was fired people were panicking and the school locked all students outside of rhe building as they went into lockdown. And since this was during dismissal, a lot of students were very afraid. The other student journalists (on Yearbook staff) told me not to run a story even three hours after the event because it would contribute to the "hysteria." But I ran the story anyway because there were students messaging me, posting on Facebook and Instagram, emailing admins, etc about if it was a shooting and if anyone was harmed. I argued over and over again that they need to know that 1. it wasn't a student at my school and 2. no one was shot. That is something they need to know immediately, not three to five hours afterwards, while the school is STILL in lockdown. But that could fit under all three of your criteria if written the right way

you ok

But that is just from a community standpoint, and that's the only journalism I know. My newsmagazine has won a first class rating from the national scholastic press association with 3 distinction marks, but people at my school still do not care about journalism. That is why I need help with expanding outside my school with important issues

yea
