Bad Escapists! Bad! When something seems too messed up to be true, you fact-check it. It only takes a few seconds to Google the truth. On the other hand, playing fact-checker around here is pretty fun, so maybe it's in my best interest if you guys continue being terribly irresponsible news consumers.
(Here's a hint: when a Moroccan news agency has to cite the freaking Huffington Post (for god's sake!) about events supposedly taking place in Egypt, that is a bit suspicious.)
