I've seen some stellar examples of piss-poor journalism in my day, but some of the shit that people even bother to write about now takes the cake:
http://www.bustle.com/articles/44619-eb ... aster-planThe article in its entirety is a waste.
And, of course, there was the lovely Ebola-Chan meme, a threatening meme circulated by 4chan users on Nigerian Internet message boards, because why not?
Oh my! Head for the hills! There's a new meme on the internet! It's threatening!!! I'm gonna attach a photo of the original. You may need a change of underwear after seeing it.

http://www.masslive.com/news/index.ssf/ ... hrine.htmlI can understand the guy that found the stuff reporting it to the police. I can understand the police officer's statement. He may not have been aware of the meme. Once the site's editor(s) found out that there was a photo of a meme at this so-called shrine, why wasn't the story pulled? Start going through, the comments and I think you'll see what the intent of the person(s) setting up the scene were. Simply put, he/she/they wanted attention.
