I came across a post on Twitter that I didn’t believe was true. The subject of the article is a lobster. They claim to have found a yellow lobster. Researchers claim it’s a rare lobster that few people have ever seen. CNN grabbed a yellow lobster dubbed “Banana” off the coast of Maine. I decided to look into whether or not the yellow lobster existed. The investigative steps are as follows:
- Locate and validate the source.
The story was authored by Lauren M. Johnson for CNN.com. She is a CNN Cross Platform Associate Producer who graduated from Western Carolina University in 2011.CNN Profiles – Lauren M. Johnson – Cross Platform Associate Producer – CNN
