    For those wondering, this played out well! OP found someone to take the job. His wife bit on the prank gleefully, was actually thrilled by the idea that OP had a son he didn’t know about. When the prank was revealed, she thought it was hilarious. Ultimately pretty wholesome, OP married a keeper.

      We fired our fact-checkers, so we cannot verify whether that is true or not.

        True or not, this is the outcome we deserve.

          I can assure you it is true as I was there. I was the $100 note.

        Literally everything about it’s anecdotal so the best result a fact-checker could have is a shrug.

        They couldn’t before they fired them either, so not a lot has changed. Their “fact checkers” were poorly written algorithms that frequently flagged benign content as misinformation.

          I think the goal was to flag benign content as misinformation to push truthful content to the same level as flat earth content.

          So doing exactly what was intended.
