    South African authorities release water to alleviate shortages to drought-stricken Cape Town, pushing back their “Day Zero” — the date when the city might have to turn off most taps because of a long drought — to May. http://abcn.ws/2sdAy1j pic.twitter.com/e0BCTxvkkM

        Release water... The people saying that there was no water... and that there was an imminent threat of drought... just "released water". From where? They're hoarding water and pretending there's shortages? This is why I don't take people seriously...

        You do have a point there. But it is MSM reporting so I still have doubts.
