  • On 19 August 2017, the entertainment web site Delaware Ohio News published a story claiming that the bodies of Confederate soldiers would be exhumed from a local cemetery and relocated to a nearby dump: Although Delaware Ohio News carries a disclaimer identifying itself as a satire publication, this article was published amidst heightened nationwide tension around the removal of Confederate monuments and the text itself offered gave almost no clear indication that it was meant to be humorous. Unsurprisingly, some readers mistook it for a genuine news item. The site's disclaimer reads: Although several Confederate statues were removed in August 2017, no Delaware, Ohio, cemetery has announced plans to remove the bodies of confederate soldiers. (en)
