In a service aired on the BBC last 16 April, the English journalist Chris Morris in his Reality Check broadcast positioned Matteo Salvini among the leaders who spread the most fake news during the Coronavirus emergency. Predictable that the other two are Donald Trump and Jair Bolsonaro.
“Nationalist leader Matteo Salvini – says Morris quoting the leader of the Carroccio – he told his followers that the Chinese created the coronavirus in a laboratory. This is yet another fake announcement that has however been shared in clear text on his social media. We repeat, scientists are convinced that this is not a virus created by humans”, declares Chris Morris showing the images of the tweet by Matteo Salvini with the now famous service of the Tg Leonardo del 2015.
