La Foto Pertenece A Protestas en El Cauca en 2012
The false news of the death of the actor Sylvester Stallone has spread through social
networks since this Monday, February 19. Several pages on Facebook and Twitter have
reported that the 71-year-old American artist had died after a long and bitter battle against a
"prostate cancer" he had allegedly kept hidden.
The journalist Herbin Hoyos Medina, posted on his Twitter account a photo in which you
can see three armed Indians and a woman in military clothing, in the trill, suggests that
the photo is current, captured in the indigenous minga in the department of Cauca
In the description of the photo, the journalist demanded Feliciano Valencia, a senator who
incited the protests, to respond to justice for links with Pablo Catatumbo and armed
groups of indigenous people.
The photo was widely broadcast on the network. However, the photo turns out to be
false, since it belongs to protests in the same department but in 2012. The image was
carried on the newspaper La Republic on July 18 of that year.
