A timely reminder of how easy it is to fake a tweet and mislead the public.

of a tweet allegedly from the Essex Police department in the U.K. went viral for its controversial statement in which it appeared to call for more applicants from the"correct background," which meant mostly ethnic minority communities.

Twitter account @TheFreds shared this screenshot, calling out Essex Police for allegedly using the term"correct background" to describe diverse applicants. We looked for evidence of such a tweet from Essex Police and found none. The official Twitter account of the police department also denied posting such a tweet, calling the image"manipulated." They wrote:"It is a fake and has never appeared on our social accounts as part of our recruitment campaign. The wording does not reflect the Essex Police recruitment strategy. Find out the truth on our website.
