Alex Tan tries to spoil S'poreans' Christmas shopping

Alex Tan Zhixiang, Chief Editor of States Times Review, irresponsibly tries to spoil Singaporeans' day out at Orchard Road by lying that there was a flood on Christmas Eve 2015. He took advantage of the fact that there were already heavy showers forecast due to the monsoons.

He stole the picture of a previous flooding at Orchard road in 2010 when there was a severe downpour, from someone else's old blog post.



Unfortunately for Alex, his lie was very quickly exposed by people who were at Orchard road at the time, as well as eagle-eye netizens who spotted the YOG Countdown tower in front of Ion.








So now, having being caught out plainly creating fake news, he pretends that he was deceived by a reader's contribution. How convenient.

Remember, Alex professed a long time ago that he doesn't believe in being credible. He places "readership over credibility."




Have you been tricked by Alex Tan & his bullshit 'States Times Review' today?

Merry Christmas everyone!




Update: 
hahahhahaa... looks like Goh Meng Seng, Secretary-General of the People's Power Party (PPP), also shared the same picture on his FB timeline (on 24 Dec 2015, 3.35pm). Best part? All his supporters seem to believe him whole-heartedly without even checking the facts.
