NOW THIS MADE SOCIAL MEDIA WORTHWHILE--POPPED UP---THE GREAT JACK MARSHALL--"THE KING IS DEAD! LONG LIVE...OH. NEVER MIND. WELL, BYE"
What is the ethical way to handle a serious mistake for which you are completely responsible?
Hint: it isn’t what the radio station’s employee did in this fiasco.
Yesterday, the British Office of Communications (Ofcom) issued its report on an incident in May that was not covered very thoroughly in the former Colonies across the pond. The U.K. radio station Radio Caroline had aired three pre-recorded statements during “The Barry Marsh Show” announcing that King Charles had died. He hadn’t died. Nevertheless, the third statement said “news media” had confirmed that the King was dead. “God Save the King” was then played, the announcement was repeated, and there were 16 minutes of dead air. When regular programming resumed, Barry, whoever he is, apologized to listeners. MORE AT “The King Is Dead! Long Live…Oh. Never Mind. Well, Bye!” | Ethics Alarms

OY SOCIAL MEDIA AND CYCLOSPORIASIS
****Some outrageous claims, memes, and news stories that don't seem to have verifiable links---are still being made about cyclosporiasis out there....
Addressing just a few here with appropriate sources---of course you should do your own due diligence and of course, if you have a trusted medical person in your life, do reach out.....This is from Google AI which has been highly reliable with verifiable links......
------NO, no one has died from cyclosporiasis in the Hudson Valley or anywhere in New York State. While social media rumors have amplified panic, the only two reported fatalities nationwide occurred in Michigan, and both individuals suffered from severe, underlying health complications. The New York State Department of Health confirms that cyclosporiasis is an uncomfortable gastrointestinal illness causing watery diarrhea, but it is highly treatable and generally not life-threatening. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
In fact, the Hudson Valley has largely been spared from the worst of the surge. The vast majority of New York's cases are concentrated within the five boroughs of New York City. [1, 2] Statewide Numbers: The New York State Department of Health reports 833 cases statewide between May 1 and August 3, 2026. And from a national perspective: The nationwide total has surpassed 18,000 confirmed or suspected cases, heavily concentrated in the Midwest. Michigan alone has faced over 12,000 cases.
AND PLEASE NOTE: New York Impact: Federal and state health agencies indicate there is no direct evidence that this specific contaminated Mexican lettuce shipment disrupted the local New York supply chain. However, regional grocery stores have pulled several packaged salad mixes and foods out of an abundance of caution. [1, 3, 4]
So if you come across commentary advising that we burn all the lettuce--I kid you not---just smile and scroll by..........
