Breaking news: Something fishy's going on at the BBC.
Users of the BBC News app received a very odd push alert on Wednesday.
To be fair, no nudity on Game of Thrones would definitely qualify as headline news, but the rest of the nonsensical push notification pointed to either a hack job, or more likely, a very bored app developer.
The same push alert was also sent a second time to users. BBC News quickly issued an apology, saying the message occurred because of a "testing error" and not any hacking or foul play.
Re two incorrect @BBCNews push notifications sent earlier. This was result of a testing error. The account has not been hacked.— BBC Press Office (@bbcpress) June 25, 2014
Just a heads up for the future, BBC: This is why "Testing 1, 2, 3" was invented.
