I need an explanation of the rules.

This was posted in Newsbot:

Quote:
Liberals might be granted their death wish
Ignatieff attacks Harper's policies, style
Chantal Hébert


It's not a news story; it's an opinion piece. How do you determine when something can go into Newsbot? A few days ago I posted a news story there from CNN about Obama going to Copenhagen. I was told it was a blog!

If its an innocent slip up I dont have an issue with it, its just when you start posting blogs from surftofind.com that I get annoyed.

I have now changed the title of that piece to Opinion. Blogs are not news items and should not be submitted as news. Maybe there should be an opinion title available in the choices selection. Any problems with the news items, send me a PM, or tag it using the comment box.
