Did Google really hired 15 year old?

Museum of hoaxes looks to have found the real story behind the news of Google hiring 15 year old.

"Tom Vandetta found a neat trick described on the internet: how to upload a fake press release to a free wire service, and get Google News to pick it up and disseminate it, thereby making it look like real news."

I like the way MOH ended the article saying "Just because you read it on the internet doesn't mean it's true."

Full story at the title of this post.
