In honor of April Fools Day on Tuesday, fourteen of the greatest hoaxes ever.
In honor of April Fools Day on Tuesday, fourteen of the greatest hoaxes ever.
The list is decidedly non-political, but the one theme running through almost all these hoaxes is how the press is often the number one victim.
Readers!
I must unfortunately ask you for your financial support because I do not depend on ads and rely entirely on the generosity of readers to keep Behind the Black running. You can either make a one time donation for whatever amount you wish, or you sign up for a monthly subscription ranging from $2 to $15 through Paypal or $3 to $50 through Patreon.
Your support will allow me to continue covering science and culture as I have for the past twenty years, independent and free from any outside influence.
Your support is even more essential to me because I not only keep this site free from advertisements, I do not use the corrupt social media companies like Google, Twitter, and Facebook to promote my work. I depend wholly on the direct support of my readers.
You can provide that support to Behind The Black with a contribution via Patreon or PayPal. To use Patreon, go to my website there and pick one of five monthly subscription amounts, or by making a one-time donation. For PayPal click one of the following buttons:
If Patreon or Paypal don't work for you, you can support Behind The Black directly by sending your donation by check, payable to Robert Zimmerman, to

Or you can donate by using Zelle through your bank. You will need to give my name and email address (found at the bottom of the "About" page). The best part of this electronic option is that no fees will be deducted! What you donate will be what I receive.

“the press is often the number one victim”
Victim or perpetrator?
It much easier to fooled by a hoax when not only you want the hoax to be true, but you believe yourself morally superior for believing the hoax. More than anything else, I believe this is the Democrats governing philosophy.
