Wow, that's the entire "article"... The article posting bot would have to expand the "article".

The article is dated in 2014 and stated that Daniel Houghton had been running it for 1 year.

In December 2020, NC2 Media sold Lonely Planet to Red Ventures for an undisclosed amount.

So I think he did fine.

I thought BBC took over it.

Twitter would have turned out better if they had followed the same pattern.
