The Internet is a confusing place, especially for news organizations. Attempting to find a clear-cut, concise way to present the news is a challenge. Many succeed. Some fail. Others just have mistakes.
I believe cbs3.com is one of those sites that succeeds. You know where to find information. Therefore, it’s easy to find a mistake.
The scenario is a Wisconsin who attempted to place a microwaved rat in her food at an upscale restaurant and blackmail the eatery for $500,000 in exchange for not going to the media. She failed.
And now, the accompanying photo. Cutlines/captions are fun, especially when misplaced…
If that’s Debbie Miller, then this makes for a cannibalistic rat, I suppose.
