The site should render without blocking scripts.
When we're in the realm of "should", the site should also not be using shitty tracking scripts that break content display on alternative browsers.

It's something in a third party script that my adblocker prevents from loading.
Which script exactly? If reporting to nbc news (which Walter should) it would be helpful to include.

It's a huge mess of syntax errors on a fresh profile, so hard to pinpoint.
The usual suspects of adobedtm and googletagmanager are present -


These are in first party scripts:

Apologies for the error console. Sounding like a newbie here... what is the keystroke combo to copy+paste the entire ErrorConsole window in linux? Here it is as a png (web-optimized file)

Error console output

There's a right way
There's a wrong way
And then there's my way

You can use the web console (under the developer tools submenu) instead - it allows for selecting all. Reload the page and it will show you the same output as the error console.

Thanks. Merged.

PLEASE search before creating new topics. duplicates are not useful and just waste time. See above for a solution. block adobedtm.
