Niagara Label is nestled within the picturesque village of Akron, NY, just on the outskirts of Buffalo. For over 38 years, this family-owned enterprise has thrived. The story of Niagara Label begins in 1985 when Mike and Margie Whitmarsh, fueled by a desire to forge their own path, decided to start a label printing company.

Niagara Label was the embodiment of Mike Whitmarsh’s relentless dedication. Spending his mornings nurturing customer relationships and securing orders, the hum of the Webtron 650 press would fill the afternoons producing labels that Mike would meticulously rewind, pack, and often hand-deliver to his customers.

Within a month, Niagara Label welcomed its first employee. After transitioning its modest 600-square-foot rented space into multiple larger locations, the…

A video being shared widely online falsely claims to show the new King of Denmark waving a Palestinian flag in support of a demonstration in Copenhagen.

In the clip, which is circulating on Facebook and X (formerly Twitter), a man on a balcony can be seen holding the Palestinian flag and waving, while pro-Palestine protesters gather in the street.

Following various rumours surrounding the health of senior members of the Royal Family, a number of posts on social media have claimed this week that the union flag has been seen flying at half-mast over Buckingham Palace.

It was shared on X (formerly Twitter) by Al Jazeera news correspondent Rory Challands shortly after the announcement of the Queen’s death.

Flying a flag at half-mast is often used as a gesture of…

A video on TikTok with 3.7 million views claims to show a video of the singer Adele holding the Palestinian flag while singing the song ‘When We Were Young’. Similar posts have been shared on Facebook, Instagram and X (formerly Twitter).

In a longer video clip of the same part of the gig, where she walks amongst the audience and is handed items by some of them, it’s clear that she’s actually holding the flag of Mexico. Although it includes patches of green, white and red, like the Palestinian flag, the coat of arms of the Mexican flag can clearly be seen 48 seconds in when she hands it to someone.

The clips appear to have been filmed on the 30 September performance as part of her ‘Weekends with Adele’ residency in Las Vegas. The longer video above had been…
