As it turns out:
1. The Archbishop of Canterbury didn’t actually call the nativity “a legend.”
2. The Pope didn’t actually call The Golden Compass “godless.”
3. Fred Thompson wasn’t actually endorsed by “an umbrella group for 40 million conservative Methodists across the U.S.”
4. Mitt Romney’s dad didn’t actually march with Martin Luther King Jr., and neither did he.
5. I didn’t actually find five stories in this vein. But here’s my favorite media criticism artifact of all time.
