UK judges double down on mandate to pull infant off life support, denies parents' appeal to take baby to Italy

If you live in the USA, this has Terri Schiavo-energy all around. It's different, I know. Terri was alive and braindead. This infant is gonna die. The court is sparing the infant pain.

But why would you keep a child alive to suffer? It's like Terri in that the parents refuse to think about anyone other than themselves. That's just cruel / terrible / bad.

Are we really allowing articles from Fox News here now? FN clearly violates rule 3. Even if this particular story is sound, it just legitimizes them as an org and all of the other bonkers stuff they put out.

From your link:

Straight news reporting from beat reporters is generally fact-based and accurate, which earns them a Mixed factual rating.

My second point stands.

Just because an outlet that spews made up nonsense and outright lies throws you a factual bone once in a while, it doesn't make them credible. Hence the "low credibility "rating.

Fair point. I just fire up Google News and check headlines. Some are from Fox and some of those are fact-based. I didn't consider the source, only the content (though I do consider the source when I begin reading anything from Fox). I know they're mostly trash and lies.
