Media outlets in the U.K. and the United States have been circulating false information that soft porn is played to passengers on buses in the capital of Bulgaria, Sofia.
Other news agencies have gone further, saying soft porn is being played on a 'giant plasma' screen at the Central Bus Station in Sofia.
News.bg talked with the chief coordinator of Sofia's Public Transport Company who said that such rumours were ridiculous and they were surprised at the speed with which the false information spread.
The Chief coordinator of the company said they will investigate the case. The company hasn't received any complaints from its passengers about 'porn' being played on screens in buses late at night.
"This is ridiculous. We are only playing commercials and music," says Asen Dobrev manager of Sofia's Public Transport Company.
"This must be some kind of a joke. The Brits are known for their strange sense of humour," Mr Dobrev added.
