Sure, fake news catches and succeeds attention, but for a while; however, it embraces disregard and unreliability forever.” ― Ehsan Sehgal

 

If you ask me, writing a complaint article about a media giant’s “fake news and paid news” and expecting a result is a fruitless effort because my plea failed on deaf ears. To explain, in my article titled, Reuters is Fake News, I provided “relevant, material, and competent” evidence and established my case beyond any reasonable doubt. And then I politely requested Reuters to consider correcting its fake news and apologize to its readers for reporting manufactured news.

 

My article was published on various Ethiopian news websites on November 30, 2020. Just to make sure that Reuters received my appeal, I lodged an online protest with Thomson Reuters Customer Support (TRCS). For submitting my accusation, TRCS’s webpage gave me a system generated reference number. TRCS also sent me an automated response email that stated my complaint was received.

 

After I filed my online grievance, I didn’t hear from TRCS for more than a week or so. So I emailed my protest article against Reuters’ piece to about ten employees of Reuters. On my email, I stated two things: First, if they weren’t the right recipients of my complaint article, I offered them my apology and requested them to forward my email to the appropriate person/department.
