Two Bangladeshi newspapers published reports about a Neil Armstrong interview in which he admitted the moon landings were faked. Their source ... an article in The Onion

One small scoop for The Onion, One giant slip in Bangladesh news ( http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/south_asia/8237558.stm)

Oh, that is so hilarious. I wonder if this has happened before, but wasn't caught?

I check the Onion's site every day, and I had a good laugh at the original. I never imagined that anyone could think the article is true.
