These hoaxes and fake stories really do show how little fact checking happens in most newsrooms.
They outright knowingly lie, at the behest of our governments. NYT admitted it, Julian Assange and Edward Snowden exposed all this, not to mention Kiriuk (sp?), Manning and many others. The west propagandize and spy on their own citizens and each other. USA has been doing it since our inception and ratcheted it up with Hearst and the Spanish-American war.
