On 2 October 2016, the Boston Tribune web site published an article reporting that Jodi Arias was being released from prison early despite having been sentenced to life in prison after being convicted of the murder of her boyfriend, Travis Alexander: None of this was true. The commutation of Arias' sentence from life in prison to a very early release would certainly have been a major news story if it were true. The Boston Tribune (like the Baltimore Gazette) is just a fake news site disguised as the online outlet of a major-city newspaper. The former is a rebranded version of Associated Media Coverage, a fake news site known for fabricated stories about new laws or statutes that would affect a specific subset of the population. Although a number of fake or satirical news sites include disclaimers informing readers their content is fabricated, Associated Media Coverage and the Boston Tribune do not.
