Posted April 21, 2013 That doesn't surprise me in the slightest given how bad most americans are with giography outside of the US, what worries me is that there are giography challenged americans who would go vigilante on Czech republic citizens without a second thought, their ignorance can be dangerous, just like could happen with the wrongfully identified bombers To be fair, it's not just Americans that can be dangerously ignorant.

Posted April 21, 2013 (edited) Another decent article. Goes into detail about the issues caused by social media investigators and the genuine investigative process that went into finding those responsible. Edited April 21, 2013 by Guy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted April 21, 2013 Oh Fox. What they meant to say was that Zooey is THE bomb. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 22, 2013 ...What is even the context for them doing that? When live subtitles don't recognise a spoken word, they guess, and substitute something else that is in their database. In this case, the fact his name has a "z" and an "o" in it might have been enough to confuse him with Zooey Deschanel. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 22, 2013 There's an alternate reality where she was the bomber. Imagine that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 22, 2013 Apparently a subtitling screw up. Kind of like that time a news report claimed the last Pope was the "first one to step down in over 600 used". Relevant? Not so much. It amuses me though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 22, 2013 Now I can't stop imagining an alternate reality where Daft was the bomber. "I hate people who are in shape! I MUST KILL THEM ALL." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 22, 2013 ...you realise Daft is on his way to become a beaded Machamp, right? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 22, 2013 (edited) I'm pretty sure Earth-811 Daft is a fat couch potato. Edited April 22, 2013 by Magnus Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 22, 2013 Yeah, we don't invite Earth-811 Daft to the annual meet up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
