They say it is a hoax but still report it??

Why have they even put it on the news website if it is a hoax?

White woman 'gives birth to black child' after watching black porn star on 3D TV

•Woman watching porn in 3D
•Lead role played by black man
•Site apologises for hoax

HERE'S one warning Samsung didn't put in the box for their 3D TVs.
Watching them can make you pregnant.

US woman Jennifer Johnson claims she suffered her hi-def 3D divine intervention while her soldier husband Eric was away serving in Iraq.

She said she was watching a pornographic movie with her friends when she came over "all dizzy".

A month later, she realised she was pregnant and now is the proud mother of a dark-skinned boy.

What's even more amazing is she and her husband are both white.

Ms Johnson told Techwatch that her 3D baby was "very much like the black porn star in the movie".

And if you, like most people, leap to the conclusion that Mr Johnson might be being played for a fool, think again, because he knows a scandal when he smells it.

"I see it as suspicious," he said.

"The films in 3D are very real. With today's technology, anything is possible."

It is, of course, a hoax. But it fooled many tech websites, including Gizmodo - that of the "stolen" iPhone 4G fame.

Unfortunately, it went even further.

Mediaite reports that the site that set up the hoax, Sensacionalista, was then forced to apologise to the woman and her child whose random image they grabbed off the internet to go with the false article.

“A week ago we published an article about the woman who claimed to get pregnant after watching a porn movie 3d," they posted.

"The article was fake and we used the photo that we found on the Internet.

"Unfortunatelly, the article spread around the world because some sites thought that it was real. That was not our intention.

"Sensacionalista is a small site from Brazil. We never thought that this could happen. That’s why we are asking this family to accept our sincere apology.

"That woman and her baby in the photo had nothing to do with this article. They are just a normal family trying to live they’re own lives.

"We apologize for wrongfully taking their photo and putting it in our article.

"Please, not to publish this article again and next time check what you read before you write. This site is a humor site. Nothing here is real.”


I got the email a week ago. So why is News publishing proven bullshit as "news"?
