Duffelblog and Satirical Fake News


Duffelblog is a site well known in the veteran community for hosting outlandish stories relating to military operations. Unfortunately some people still don’t bother to actually read the article and believe the article straight from the title. A little peering into the article will show anyone the nature of such an article like with the quote “If we can confiscate millions of firearms in a country where we don’t speak the language or understand the culture, the U.S. should be easy,” in this article where the U.S. military is drawing up plans for nationwide gun confiscations. It does seem easy to be fooled though, with many of these articles not being too far from the actual truth.
