Fake news story about diarrhea outbreak at strip club goes viral

In the era of Donald Trump, the term “Fake news,” has taken on a new meaning. When it comes to Trump, he tends to believe that any news story that features negative press against him is “fake news.” As a result, reputable outlets such as The New York Times and Washington Post have caught backlash from Trump and his supporters for merely reporting the facts.

But “fake news” sites continue to thrive mostly by reporting insane stories that tend to go viral. One recent story featured an unfortunate illness at a strip club. According to the fake news site Border Herald, a tainted buffet in Jacksonville, Florida led to strippers having a case of diarrhea while performing nude on stage.


“A popular strip club in Jacksonville, Florida has been closed until further notice after several dancers contracted diarrhea last Friday night. The cause of the incident, which remains under investigation, has been initially linked to a contaminated buffet at the venue.

While the investigation continues, the venue has not been named. While the results of the lab analysis are yet to come back, one source familiar with the investigation told reporters that bad shrimp was the most likely cause of the diarrhea. “Typically shrimp are involved in cases like this, particularly when they are not cleaned thoroughly.”


Patrons at the venue who were sitting near the stage were the most directly affected by the incident, which occurred close to 11 p.m.

According to a witness at the venue, three dancers were performing on separate poles when the first sign of trouble emerged … It was at this point that the first dancer to suffer from diarrhea was unable to control her bowels any longer, and ‘a stream of brown liquid soon gushed over the stage’, according to the witness … The other dancers on stage also suffered from diarrhea soon after and were forced to abandon their performance. “They had a hard time getting off the stage,” said one witness, who stayed to watch the aftermath of the incident. “High heels and diarrhea really don’t mix.”

There was not a police report of the incident and no coverage appeared on any local news outlets in Jacksonville. But it does prove that real “fake news” does still exist and the obvious lies can cause laughter at times.
