Hoax news stories on Charlie Kirk and Oregon Ducks

That Oregon Life website is warning people of a hoax news story on the coach of the Oregon Ducks banning a fan for celebrating the death of Charlie Kirk.  This apparently is the second hoax news story produced by the same suspicious Facebook page.

The Charlie Kirk/Oregon Ducks story cannot be verified anywhere else online.  The link provided (tenderpath.net) is not the source of the story but rather a a link to another link which is a nondescript website that has not been updated for two years.   The Facebook page is only a few weeks old and is based out of New York.

It is a vile and deranged act to exploit a person’s murder as a prank and as a tool to pit people against each other.

PLEASE BE CAUTIOUS of what you read on the internet.  The more serious something is, the more easier it is for people to be victimized.

The suspect fake story reads; “Breaking News: Oregon Ducks head coach Dan Lanning has issued a lifetime ban after discovering that a spectator photographed celebrating Charlie Kirk’s death at the University of Oregon’s Eugene campus was, in fact, one of the prominent members of his team. With firm resolve, Lanning declared that neither the individual nor their family will ever be allowed near his events or games again — a blunt message that he will not tolerate disgrace or the mocking of tragedy.”
