False news of the death of a journalist uses the branding of Dnevnik
UNFUNNY
MANIPULATION
A false publication entitled "This is a sad day for the whole of Bulgaria" is distributed on social networks, announcing the death of the editor-in-chief of the investigative media BIRD. The publication uses the visual identity of the website "Dnevnik" to look credible.
When you can't stop journalists with real methods, kill them virtually. Fake obituaries are the new weapon against uncomfortable media. Logic is simple: if people believe that the journalist is dead, perhaps they will stop reading his investigations. Or the goal is simply to sow confusion and distrust of everything. Which, if you think about it, is even creepier.
