I'm afraid to say Jill's career in journalism is now at an end as she has written an article that directly contradicts all the requirements of the American Wildlife Reporting Regulations [Miscellaneous Provisions].
Jill's crime is that she has written article about honey bee swarms that:-
- is factual rational, and informative,
- contains complete sentences
- has a photo relevant to the article.
As if this isn't bad enough the article utterly fails to contain the words 'buzzing', 'terror', 'panic','angry', 'fear'', biblical', 'apocalyptic', or 'supermarket' in clear contravention of the Regulations.
There is also not a single simple minded bee pun.
Considering the article comes from America, another shocking breach of the Regulations is that Killer Bees are mentioned and the article gives clear and useful information about the differences between them and European bees.
No attempt is made to whip up a bit of hysteria by claiming they are sweeping the country looking for small children, puppies and kittens to kill or any attempt made to needlessly scare the crap out of the reader.
Shame on you Jill.
The article is here.
I wish Jill well in whatever career path she chooses to take.
For those who prefer a more red of tooth and claw approach there is always the ill informed, scare mongering rubbish produced by the Mail, Mirror or Express, the favourite publications of people who own cat litter trays or bird cages.
However not lets forget the the Daily Star who recently have proved themselves capable of award winning crap untainted by reality or evidence.
On the 23rd May they produced this. Numerous references to 'killer bees', 'like something out of a horror movie', 'deadly stinging bees', 'mad bees'' ensures full compliance with The Regulations.
Also in a stunning display of stupidity it attempts to ramp up the terror levels even more as it goes on about 'killer hornets' and 'toxic caterpillars'.
Obviously pleased with themselves two days later they managed to find space in their production of sport, 'celebs', soft porn and bigotry to produce this
More killer bee nonsense and as anyone who read Jill's article would know, an American phenomenom. UK swarming bees are not 'killer' they are 'calmer'
The 23rd May article is a clear front runner for the Bee Awful 2016 award
