Fake News Report: International soccer star may sue Breitbart for using photo in “illegal immigration” story
The Hill reports that international soccer star Lukas Podolski is considering legal action against Breitbart News for using a photo of him in an article about illegal immigration, according to a new report.
BBC News reports Podolski, who starred on the German national team during their championship run in the 2014 FIFA World Cup, has consulted with his lawyer about the matter.
The far-right website posted a story, titled “Spanish Police Crack Gang Moving Migrants on Jet-Skis,” last week with a photo of Podolski riding a jet-ski as the lead image.
Breitbart has since replaced the photo and added a correction to the bottom of their story.
