Does any of you learned friends read the Nobel laureate of his year? is he
any good?
I did. And was fascinated to read about this hoax, a few hours before the
actual Nobel for Literature was given. An Eastern European source starting
to spread the 'info' that someone else (an Eastern European) had gotten the
Nobel. Googling "false info" "hoax" "Nobel" "2011" should provide the
actual source.
Of course Grice is right that false info is no info, but what does a bad
journalist know?
Cheers,
