The damaging lies to Jamaica
perpetrated by a Jet Blue employee who tried to avoid her legal obligation to quarantine by spreading egregious kidnapping lies on social media is being urgently investigated by Jet Blue. Major media sources CNN and NBC both ran this false story without checking on its validity. These lies have caused cancellations to an already hurting industry.
From the Observer:

And people wonder why we call the legacy media "Fake News." It's all about making money and not about reporting the news accurately.
Hats off to the Jamaican Health ministry for keeping Jamaicans and tourists safe. Hard to undo the lies.
Headline in NBC release "An American flight attendant was alleged to have been kidnapped in Jamaica. Authorities say it was a lie."Quote:

Then, how is that a story worthy of a headline? Oh, to make people click on it so they can make more money.Quote:

While they (NBC) do get income from online content they are primarily broadcast media where they get their revenue from TV advertising, not "clicks".Quote:

She was fired.
