Gotcha again Oprah! Holocaust love story a fake

Discussion in 'Sports and News' started by Evil ... Thy name is Orville Redenbacher!!, Dec 28, 2008.

  1. Man and woman who claim to have met while he was held in Buchenwald and wrote a love story about the the event, admit the claim is a fake.
    It only took a few years to finally either prove it or admit it.

    Of course the fact that is is a lie isn't stooping a made-for-tv movie.

    Nobody fact checked the book, despite the claims of friends and relatives, including the guy's brothers, who were also at Buchenwald, that the story was a fake.

    i guess it's just hard to find fact checkers these days, because they're all working for SI.com

    Reminds me of The Long Walk. Great story, but total bullshit.

    I know what fiction is... I read reviews of Tuesday's with Morrie and the Fab Five
