Who doesn’t feel the heart strings tighten when a true story of hardship is presented, complete with video clips of beach walking and wailing orchestral instruments? But “victims” have become entertainment that equal big ratings and instant stardom. As such, one must always be on the lookout for the big hoax.

I didn’t click after #9. Was an unbiased media listed as one of the 10 hoaxes. I think that is the greatest hoax of all - that the media is 99% liberal democrat, reports from that bias, and pretends to be unbiased.

No, it’s not one of them. IMO, “unbiased, objective media” IS the mother of all hoaxes, since from it all other hoaxes are born and perpetuated.

Nope Biggest Hoax pulled on America is #1 No WMD in Iraq. They continue to lie about that. Next would be Bush ruined the Economy... That is one lie I get so heated up about.

Is there some sort of training manual for this particular technique? The numbers of this exact type of incident across the country in the past several years are too numerous to mention. Definite neurotic, it’s a shame people like that are never punished and continue to damage young people.

Anthropogenic Global Warming is THE hoax on the century and has been the most damaging by far.

It did annoy me that it was on 11 different pages. David Horowitz is doing good work, so I didn’t mind as much.
