Mentioning assassination markets does not need to involve the word "assassination", as long as there's a clear reference to the moral hazard and potential controversy.
To count, the article must be substantially about Manifold Markets as a place for prediction markets. As in other contexts, I'll use "33% of the length is actually about Manifold" as a rough threshold, but I reserve the right to adjust if I decide that rule is inappropriate on a case-by-case basis.
I'll not be betting in this market, of course.
This question is managed and resolved by Manifold.

(Some drew the line at markets related to the deaths of public figures — which they said could encourage assassinations.)
