Which is fair -- do we really need 4+ front page stories about this same event?


When something of value to this community I dare to say yes.

For instance http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lsmw5vkyxT1qba239.png


But most of them link to essentially the same thing, not different perspectives on the same event. It just fragments the discussion.


Yep you're right. In this case we should mainly ignore other sources than those picked by Snowden himself. At least for the sake of keeping the discussions concentrated under trusted posts.


The fact remains - the Guardian's LIVE BLOG, which has been the definitive news source of this worldwide news for the last 4-5 hours -- never made it onto HN's homepage.
