FAKE, REUTERS SAYS OF NEWS REPORT

KUALA LUMPUR, May 11 — The Reuters news agency today rejected links to a purported news report online that claimed the US has flagged Malaysia as a state sponsoring terrorism.

The global news agency said it did not produce any such report.

“Any claims that Reuters reported that Malaysia is the first country in Southeast Asia to be listed by the United States as a state sponsor of terror are false. Reuters did not report this,” it said in a statement today.

Images of the news report, which appeared to mimic the appearance of a Reuters news report, have been shared online since yesterday.

My Comments :

This blog mistakenly carried that fake "Reuters report" as well. I deleted that blog  post as soon as I found out (just over two hours after I posted it) that it was fake.

I must say that report went viral and I believe many people were misled into believing it (including me). My apologies to Reuters as well.

The views expressed are those of the writer and do not necessarily reflect those of MMKtT.
