On Monday 9/7 at about noon EDT Google News published a story originating
from Bangladesh in the "Onion".
The satire had NO note to make one aware of its lack of authenticity.
It was published as FACT
Subsequently only the satirical version was available an hour or so later.
The content dealt with Neil Armstrong's so called "conversion" to the
debunkers of the Lunar Landing.
I've tried since then [three X's] beginning immediately after the article
was brought to my attention by Dawn, my wife to email this to the list but
forgot to format in plain text so the emails have failed to reach the list.
The articles was filled with details of a news conference where Neil tossed
his Lunar rocks into the trash to the total amazement of the news people
claiming that he had been duped by NASA and had been living a lie.
I'm surprised that no one else commented on it
