Earlier this week the seedy Daily Mail published a disparaging headline about Chris Packham, this time screaming that Chris ‘faces calls to be sacked‘. It was published in response to a short video Chris had posted on Twitter about attending a Biodiversity Earth Day rally in London today, which Chris described as “a family-friendly affair” and which the organisers had described as ‘a procession for nature, a parade of reflection and celebration, with masks, costumes and nature based art to honour and respect our natural world and all endangered species‘. here, here, here). But this time it wasn’t them. Instead, it appears that the justification for this headline was solely based on five words written by an anonymous Twitter user who has just 50 followers:Little wonder that this so-called ‘news’ paper has been banned as an ‘unreliable’ source by Wikipedia.
