    No it’s not. I mean, maybe if you’re dumb and can’t recognize fake shit, which, from the looks of this comment thread, it appears Lemmy has started down that path.

    It’s the “in a bikini” part that’s a dead giveaway. That’s not a detail that would be included in a real headline. That’s extra added to make the situation seem more ridiculous and silly. It’s crazy I even have to point this out, its painfully obvious to me.

      Tbf, we live in the Clickbait Era of journalism, so that’s not your best argument. It’s definitely fake, but the poorly written headline is no longer good proof, it’s actually the standard even for articles written by real people.
