This is what malicious compliance looks like (sub-editor handed repugnant article: "hmm, I wonder what photo I can pair with this to undermine it …")

@cstross

To save everyone else the work, I've located the original. It's from Adobe Stock, by someone known only as "dantada", and tagged 2006, which is presumably the year when it was taken.

Amusingly, the stock image is a fair way down the #NewYorkPost article. The generated montage has skipped over some images of already pedestrianized school roads, 14th Street buses, and suchlike.

The richest man on Earth owns X.
The family of the second-richest man owns #Paramount, which owns #CBS, and could soon own #WarnerBros, which owns #CNN.
The third-richest man owns #Facebook, #Instagram and #WhatsApp.
The fourth-richest man owns the #WashingtonPost and Amazon #MGM Studios.
Another #billionaire owns #FoxNews, the #WallStreetJournal and the #NewYorkPost.
