This is the only reasonable takeaway. An American family went to a political event and saw their loved one killed in front of them. Pray for that family and the country. Forget politics.

Breaking: In a letter obtained by 8News, Governor Glenn Youngkin tells Virginia's congressional delegation that Virginia will not be participating in the new IRS Direct File Program. The program would allow taxpayers to file their taxes online for free directly on the IRS' website.

From a thread about local news in the wake of Helene. Local news is only as strong as the support it receives. The reason huge news organizations can create the content they do is b/c they have incredible amounts of funding. Passion can do a lot -- but it can only go so far.

This is in reference to photos of Liam Payne, dead, being run by a certain organization. Journalists, don't let go of your humanity in the search for traction/notoriety. The stories you're telling are about real people. How would you feel in Payne's family's shoes?
