Thisday's Journalism Hits A New Low...batman To Launch Power Projects In Nigeria

http://www.thisdaylive.com/articles/honeywell-to-invest-1bn-on-power-project/122253/



According to ThisDay, Batman actor Christian Bale is the CEO of Honeywell group...and they followed it up with a caption photo of the actor dancing with catwoman...ripped from the latest batman movie.

Sadly, such shoddy work is the norm with many Nigerian journalists these days.

In fairness the ThisDay article stated that the CEO of Honeywell is Chris Bale not Christian Bale. Still, how the reporter thought it fitting that it must be the Batman actor is a mystery.

Maybe the Joker has taken over ThisDay newspaper. cheesy

The effects of the Jokers(Boko Haram) attack on their premises is still fresh in their memory that is while such silly blunder could be made.I expect them to have bounced back since their Boss have a good relationship with top govt officials/functionaries!!!

I visited the HoneyWell website under their leadership page and there is no Batman on their leadership list

Except Honeywell just fired their CEO just before this news.
