General News Register features original reporting alongside carefully selected links to relevant stories from other news organizations, giving readers a mix of our own coverage and the wider news worth following, including human interest and celebrity stories.

Straightforward reporting with a sharp eye for stories that are overlooked, strange, funny, dramatic, or deeply human. Serious when the subject calls for it, lively when the story allows it, and always interested in the people behind the news.

Rules:

Be civil; no hate or personal attacks. No serial downvoting.
Yes, the Daily Mail counts as a news org.
Yes, celebrity news is news too.
Weird that I have to make this an actual rule, but here we go: No advocating violence or murder.
Avoid duplicates & spam (search before posting)
No link shorteners
