Analisis :
Pada 12 Februari 2015, situs web hiburan 'World News Daily Report' menerbitkan sebuah artikel yang mengklaim bahwa beberapa penyelam amatir menemukan hulu ledak nuklir yang nonaktif di lepas pantai Georgia :
"A couple of tourists from Canada made a surprising discovery while scuba diving in Wassaw Sound, a small bay located on the shores of Georgia. Jason Sutter and Christina Murray were admiring the marine life of the area when they stumbled upon a Mark 15 thermonuclear bomb that had been lost by the United States Air Force more than 50 years ago.
The couple from London in Ontario, was on a two week vacation in Georgia and Florida to practise their favorite hobby, scuba diving, when they decided to dive near the shores of Tybee Island. While admiring the plants and fishes near the sea floor, they noticed a large cylindrical item partially covered by sand. They investigated the object and found out that it was actually a sort of bomb or missile, so they decided to contact the authorities.
'I noticed an object that looked like a metal cylinder, which I thought was an oil barrel' says Jason Sutter. 'When I dug it up a bit, I noticed that it was actually a lot bigger and that there was some writing on the side. When I saw the inscription saying that it was a Mk-15 nuclear bomb, I totally freaked out. I caught Chritina by the arm and made signs to tell her we had to leave. We made an emergency ascent, went back to shore and then we called 911.'"

Sementara kisah yang dituliskan dalam artikel World News Daily Report di atas memang sebuah karya fiksi (satir), tetapi foto yang disertakan dengan artikel itu nyata. Gambar berasal dari DPA, kantor berita terbesar di Jerman, dan pertama kali diterbitkan oleh penyiar internasional Deutsche Welle (DW) pada tanggal 15 Januari 2014 di sebuah artikel berjudul 'Wartime ammunition still rotting in German waters' (amunisi masa perang masih membusuk di perairan Jerman).

Semoga saja berita satir dari World News Daily Report ini tidak dikutip kembali oleh media nasional kita. Karena beberapa tahun belakangan, jurnalis justru terkecoh dengan berita yang seakan fakta.
Sikapi dengan bijak, semoga bermanfaat.
Salam Internet Sehat!
