On 7 November 2016, the web site World News Daily Report published an article reporting that a Michigan hunter named Jeremy Larsen was nearly killed by an enormous amorous moose in Ontario: The claim sounded completely implausible, which is fitting because WNDR is solely a purveyor of fake news items. WNDR swipes random images from the internet to illustrate their clickbait fabrications, and the sensational material inevitably generates traffic on social media. The image of a man on a gurney that appeared with the moose claim was taken from a completely unrelated story about a fatal accident involving an arborist, and the photograph of John Larsen is in fact a man named Mark Kenyon.
