German Newspaper Bild Apologises For False Story Alleging Cologne-Style Sex Attacks By Migrants
by Guest Thu Feb 16, 2017 7:53 am
A German tabloid has apologised for running a false story about Cologne-style sex attacks by migrants.
Police investigated after Bild, the country’s biggest selling newspaper, reported that 900 migrants had attacked women in a Frankfurt shopping district, Fressgass, on New Year’s Eve. The allegation had echoes of attacks in Cologne the previous year, which fuelled the anti-migrant movement in Germany after the country took in hundreds of thousands of those fleeing war and poverty amid the migration crisis. Bild’s claim was picked up by The Daily Express and The Daily Telegraph last week, before both amended their articles.

I would sadly say, its becoming the norm of where media outlets fail to fact check and run with hearsay, but good to see they apologised.

Any chance the reports were true, and the Government has had a hand in this to try and stop the truth being reported, so as to stop further unrest by native Germans?
