Wife for camels?

Finding Fake news:



In an age where information gets traded with seemingly no filter at all,
we all need to check our facts more than ever before. Sites like
worldnewsdailyreport.com, despite having a legitimate sounding name,
would like you to click on their sensationalist headlines like
his wife to a prince for 45 camels”. This website is actually a satirical
news site which publishes a disclaimer reading “[...] WNDR assumes
the fictional nature of their content[…]” This doesn’t stop people from
believing in these types of articles, though. As a reader by the name
of Yvan who presumably read the article without reading the disclaimer
said, “and we make business with this sick country!” I think we should
all check out websites likes snopes.com who fact check so you don’t
have to. Here is their take on the Saudi Arabia article.
