**Your software**  
My Mautic version is: 4.4.10  
My PHP version is: 8.0 30  
My Database type and version is: 10.6

I’d like to delete about 300 contacts with hat not the tag “News”  
How can i delete the search result?

The only way i found out self ist:

1. Create a segment with filter tags except News
2. Make a campaign source this segement and action delete contacts.

What is the easiest way for it?
