"There is nothing — NOTHING — too crazy for the Internet hoax beat.
Pregnancy by flu shot? Six days of total darkness? In the past 82 weeks,
I’m prettyyyy sure I’ve seen just about everything."

An interesting article on the decline of fact-checking.

Linked to by another article shared by Jake Weisz and Kee Hinckley.

Cheers,
