Following the murder of 2 children and their mother in Pelt, living nearby I read into it.
HBVL writes that the murderer is Found dead in Lille near de kanaal. Approximately 5km from his house.
HLN writes he is Found in the Breugelweg, 2km from his house.
I grew up a few streets away from there.
I agree with the Lidl advertisement.
Depends on their sources.
When articles are similar, you can bet they both just happened to use the same source or news agency (think Belga, Bloomberg…).
In this case they must have different ones.
Usually no. Just confronted by this with the handicapped trolley being burned in Hasselt 3 weeks ago. It ran with a piece of what horrible people would do this, human interest piece on the woman with her grandchild. That she wasn’t allowed to put her scooter inside and how sad it is to be exploited by everyone.
I know people who live in the same appartment block as the disabled woman. She’s been gathering the drunks and junks at the station and inviting them into her home at all times. They do drunk/drugged out parties to full volume carnival music till 6 in the morning. The whole appartment building has been harassed by junks thanks to her. She/ her junk buddies have been stealing from the mailboxes, stealing every bike near the building and have wrecked the front door to the building more than 5 times.She cries about being forced to put her scooter in the basement in the article, she was blocking the whole hallway and charging the thing on the random peoples powergrids. Since the article there’s been multiple reactions, including kickstarters and donations to help her out, she shares them whereves possible (even though she already has 2 new scooters at the moment).
Any research at all would have brought this out, like asking one neighbour would have avoided this. Now dozens of people have kindly donated to help the disabled woman, who’s trying to rake in as much cash as possible to spend on more booze and drugs.
EDIT: should point out, while the druggies and disabled crazy woman are annoying and even dangerous. This isn’t a “f’ing degenerate scum!” post. I went into the specifics, because it’s insane to me that the journalism is so bad. The people I know who live there are really annoyed with it, but also admit it’s mostly sad and tragic. Journalism as one of the checks and balances of the state is complete bullshit if it doesn’t even ask 1 bystander about the events that happened. These people need to get kicked out of the appartment yes, but are also in dire need of help.
The timing of your screenshot with the Lidl ad and the headline though
No, they researched that on the tv show Basta.
there are two truths in Belgium: DPG Media’s and Mediahuis’s
as you have just witnessed, these diverge at times
I think the problem is wanting to publish news for exposure asap. That means the writer is under pressure to deliver something immediately, preferably yesterday. If people already read most of the info through other sources, you’ll risk losing clicks or visitors.
I don’t agree with this process at all by the way, but I think this might be a reason.
Basta toonde al in 2005?2006? aan dat bronnen vaak niet worden gecontroleerd.
Als je ziet hoe de nieuwsmedia achteruit gegaan is sindsdien denk ik niet dat het zo verwonderlijk is.
Gezellige boel, daar in Pelt
I live in a side street of the street that this happened in. When i went to bed i heard 8 different stories of what happened.
But i thought that it was already known that the news is unreliable.
News has long stopped being news. They are media companies producing ‘articles’ with the sole purpose of getting eyeballs on advertisement within the articles.
Quality is very very very much near the bottom of priorities for these companies.
Why would news need to be correct? All that matters is that you read it.
I don’t see the difference.
In the article below it is stated that after the murder he ran away, BUT ALSO that they found his body (presumably dead) in the canal. So it they both basically say he did kill himself after.
