Or showing a twitter post/FB blah as "proof" of it being real. Always love those.

From Wiki (for what that is worth given anyone can edit it)

"The department's annual budget is in excess of £350 million; it has 3,500 staff, 2,000 of whom are journalists.[2] BBC News' domestic, global and online news divisions are housed within the largest live newsroom in Europe, in Broadcasting House in central London."

You have to ask what are the additional 1,500 doing. My mistake - they are making it up.
