And papers never get it wrong? I have seen numerous occasions where a lazy journo has just printed something without checking it first only to find out it was incorrect all along.

There was a superb and elaborate 'sting' a few years back on a motorcycle group I frequent. It was noticed that stuff that was being discussed on the group was turning up as an 'exclusive' in MCN the week after. So a few of the guys planted this seed that Honda were about to release this revolutionary engined motorcycle that would absolutely blow the competition into the weeds. There was discussion about the engine config etc. Sure enough the week after a full 4 page spread including 'artists impressions' was there in all its glory. One of the regulars on the group is a journo in the motorcycle press and pointed all the monthly mags at this sting. MCN had very red faces for quite some time!
