Daily Mail Headline.

DM said:

RAF Typhoon scrambled after two Russian planes stray into UK airspace today.

Further down the article the truth emerges.

DM said:

‘There were unidentified aircraft flying near the north of Scotland,’ a Ministry of Defence spokesman said, adding that the RAF had later identified them as Russian.
‘They were flying in international airspace at all times - they didn't go into UK sovereign airspace.’

Phew!

And The Telegraph and Sky News, etc.

So what??

The Telegraph and I believe SKY did not say that the Russian planes had 'strayed into UK airspace'. and then reported in the same article that they in fact were in international airspace all along.
