This is an older article. I actually remember a few of the incidents mentioned in this article about this master manipulator. I do like one part of his reasoning.
"And if it's the media on which you base your beliefs on, perhaps it might be a good idea to reconsider. They control the gates through which information passes and they decide what gets through. “They define it every day, in every way. They define it by how they present it, how it is interpreted, and we define it by how we interpret what they are interpreting. From what's fashionable to going to war, from what we wear and what we eat to what we believe,” Skaggs says."

I wonder how many other hoaxes that haven't yet been uncovered are still out there that many of us still accept as fact? This guy likes to reveal his hoax because for him, that seems to be the fun of it in showing people how gullible they were.

I've heard of him before, and I think he does a rather useful thing. Showing people how gullible the media is proves a strong point. People need to think for themselves, not eat whatever garbage is fed to them by the networks.
