This would include Sky News although I don't believe Murdoch owns them anymore. Any thoughts?

I was not aware that every single word in every single story from every single media outlet owned by News Corp (of which the Murdoch family owns 39 %) violated the WrongPlanet guidelines.

No much is purely factual. But this policy would still help. There's nothing worth knowing that can't be found in other sources.

An equivalent situation is that many countries do not allow Americans to visit as tourists, although they're perfectly aware that most Americans by far are not COVID positive.
