Are we allowed to report NEWS reports?

It has never been against ebay rules to post news stories from mainstream media outlets here (examples:  The Australian, The Age, Sydney Morning Herald, Daily Telegraph etc) 

 

News stories from other outlets it depends on the content. - must not offensive, racist, bigoted, graphic scenes, etc.

Then how come they removed my NEWS report?

 

It was an actual sharia law court ruling which was advertised on the news.

 

OR,

 

Are we only allowed to report western news because it is not as violent?

The moderation robots probably screen anything that might be inflammatory. Things relating to Islam are quite a sensitive topic, and Freedom of Speech is a bit one-sided here.


I guess that's better than none at all in the Islam world, though.

Did it contain graphic images or descriptions of the sentence being carried out?

good point.

 

OP, you have to treat news reports the same

way as any other content you would post here.

UFO - The board usage policy applies to all post content, not just quoted articles... I would have thought most here would already know that
