I'm not trying to accomplish anything. I don't make the threads you're discribing, so I have no stake in whether those rules are upheld. I will say that, as a forum goer, I don't care how much effort goes into not plagerizing a news story, because that's not why I or anyone else uses forums. I don't care if it rubs you the wrong way, that's the nature of a forum.
I don't care is the rule is enforced. I don't care if it isn't. But the fact that it isn't highlights an aspect of news threads you're unwilling to acknowledge. Absolutely no one posting threads cares about sharing news. They care about discussing it. Who cares if it's semantics? It's fact. There are dozens of well written on literally every peice of news that has ever been. No one is coming here to discover it, and I bet most people who comment on news threads saw the news in a dozen other news outlets first before coming here to talk about it.
