Reporter calls out immigration photo on social media as fake news
A Vancouver radio reporter says people on social media, including a vocal British politician, should be more careful about spreading fake news.
Lasia Kretzel was working for CKOM in Saskatoon in 2015 when she attended a rally supporting Syrian refugees.
She wrote a story about the rally and snapped a photo of a woman with a sign around her neck that read: “My door is open for refugees.”
The same photo is circulating again on social media, but with the sign changed to: “My legs are open for refugees.”
