The crypto news site that is almost completely sourced from r/cc – we make the news now!
| |
So I make comedy post on r/cc and everyone once in a while somebody will send me an article from a crypto news site that picked up my post and ran it as real news. After looking at multiple of these links I found that they were usually coming from the same site. After doing some skimming of the sites articles it looks like a lot of their articles are sourced directly from this sub so congratulations r/cc we are the source of crypto news now. This one is currently on the front page of r/cc, posted 12 hours ago and the article followed three hours later This one is from yesterday, title very similar The title of the article is copied word for word basically Now you might be thinking to yourself "crypto news is all the same and multiple sites report on the same thing" we see this on this sub as countless articles have basically the same news except the next examples are a bit different and could only have come from r/cc. Recent comedy post on r/cc about Charles making an appearance during a SuperBowl commercial. to give this author credit he added a question mark and stated that it was not confirmed. Apparently I'm a crypto analyst now. I could believe this one was reported as real, I guess even crypto journalist miss the comedy flairs. Yes I know this probably isn't some big crypto news site but it's still odd they chose to us r/cc as their main news source and that there are probably people out in the world reading this site and believing that EGG coin is real. How many other crypto news sites are coming to r/cc to gather information and maybe just being a bit more careful about what they actually post on their website? submitted by /u/Odlavso |
