Are you suggesting that coconuts migrate? How do you know she is a witch? On second thoughts, let’s not go there. It is a silly place. Where’d you get the coconuts? Oh! Come and see the violence inherent in the system! Help, help, I’m being repressed!

It’s only a model. Oh, ow! You can’t expect to wield supreme power just ’cause some watery tart threw a sword at you!

Western Europe is deeply connected to NYC. It may appear obvious, but when the buzz was already generating tremendous interest in NYC, after it had reached all Western European countries, it was only just starting to generate interest in other regions.

The Lady of the Lake, her arm clad in the purest shimmering samite, held aloft Excalibur from the bosom of the water, signifying by divine providence that I, Arthur, was to carry Excalibur.

Conspiracy theorists: Metro News, 20 Minutes and other popular news websites were challenged by internet users who suggested that what the media were saying was false, and that they, the users, knew what the truth was. The difference with 9/11 is the speed with which these reactions occurred. Although Le Monde’s website did a truly excellent job, fact-checking every rumor in a live mode, it was the only media outlet to do so, due to the very complexity of the task that proves challenging to news media in a new and harassing way.
