So, Mr Rogers, Sesame Street, Nova... were all propaganda?

The letter of the day is F, for Fake Fucking News.

Nova

I know plenty of people who think saying the earth is >10,000 years old is propaganda.

There was a Nova episode in the 1970s that was dedicated to a crazy rich guy's hare-brained scheme to mine minerals off of the sea floor.

Then, about thirty years later another Nova episode revealed that the mining scheme from the earlier episode was a CIA cover story to cover up for a top secret claw game operation to lift a sunken Soviet submarine off of the sea floor.

So I guess the first one was fake news.
