This from Adriaan Basson in News24 today:

Never before in our lifetime has a crisis brought forward so many truthers in our midst. And I’m not only referring to the inject-yourself-with-bleach crazies in the White House and on Facebook.

No one in the White House uttered the words "inject yourself with bleach" (can't speak for FB as I can't possible read all the shit there). This is lazy, sensationalist journalism at its worst.

Every article n the main media in SA comes directly from the news agencies in the USA and are as crazy as some of their own sources are,

And most people, without a real interest in matters, just believe everything they read in the media. Why would they lie? Journalism is all but dead today.
