Shipwreck found in Black Sea...Sky news. Fake news (a la Tronald Dumpf)

[MrsGollach]

So watching tonight's news on Sky.

Photos of divers exploring the wreck at 2000 metres down. What bullshit. This is impossible.

Great find however no divers there.

WHy is it she?! Was watching this earlier

It was found at 1000 meters not 2000.

Boats are always referred to as she.

Sorry that should have said why is it fake , not she!

Why do you think it's fake? It isn't.

According to the BBC it is more than 2,000 metres down and beyond the reach of divers, the discovery was made by ROV (remote operated vehicles).

It's not fake, apart from the fact that 2,000m is too deep for divers to reach. It's a 2,500 year old Greek trading vessel, an amazing find. What has Trump got to do with it?

If Sky News was showing divers on a wreck, it was probably just representative stock footage to show their less intelligent viewers what a shipwreck looks like

Stock footage.

Real news :

This looks to be the sky report the OP is referring to...definitely not the right video footage (and bad subtitling should be 'rudder' not 'rubbers', surely?)
