  • On 24 July 2014, Empire News published an article positing that former president George W. Bush had been arrested after a traffic stop in Dallas for cocaine possession: Soon afterwards links and excerpts referencing this article were being circulated via social media, with many of those who encountered the item mistaking it for a genuine news item. However, the article was just a spoof from Empire News, one of many fake news sites that publishes fictional stories such as Cure for Cancer Discovered; 'Amazingly Simple' Says Researcher, and College Student Excused from Classes After Dog Eats Grandmother, and Woman Gives Birth, Confuses Doctors by Asking for Maternity Test. Their disclaimer page notes that Empire News is a satirical and entertainment website. (en)
