IT’S no secret that social media is a force to be reckoned with and more often than not, it’s a primary source of information for many people.
The Bunbury Mail is striving towards becoming a daily online news source and we have published many breaking news stories on our website and social media within hours of an event happening.
Often there is a lot of speculation on breaking news across social media platforms and our website can act as a source of accurate information to clear up rumours.
But recently it was suggested by a Facebook user we had lifted a story from information published on Bunbury Crime Stoppers, a page which is not verified by authorities.
Our team of reporters never publish an article based solely on heresay or rumours.
We hope to continue reporting the news in a timely fashion while being factual and sensitive to those involved.
And we hope you continue to enjoy reading it.
