"Blackface" article

I removed this section as stated in the edit summary because of WP:NOTNEWS. This is an insignificant story that wikipedia should not cover for the same reason we don't give three long paragraphs to every single lawsuit that has ever been filed against every single media outlet. The sources on it are also insufficient, with the lone AP article being the only real reliable secondary source. New York Post is a right wing tabloid and not considered reliable, and Deadspin's own articles are WP:PRIMARY 46.97.170.18 (talk) 12:20, 16 October 2024 (UTC)

I've readded this section in full. The New York Post, while certainly conservative in its editorial stance, is not WP:DEPRECATED, and opinion articles cited have been marked as such within the citations. Overlasting Peace (talk) 22:26, 17 October 2024 (UTC)
As an addendum: this article and the resulting legal action are presently and immediately relevant to Deadspin's present and potential future operations, and merit mention in this Misplaced Pages article. Overlasting Peace (talk) 22:28, 17 October 2024 (UTC)
It is not, and does not. If by some miracle this will result in anything other than an out of court settlement, which is how sensationalized defamation suits against media outlets typically end, then we could consider mentioning it, depending on how Deadspin is affected in the aftermath, but until then, this is just another day in frivolous lawsuit land. 46.97.170.18 (talk) 10:35, 18 October 2024 (UTC)
