Today's fake: journalist invented interviews

A Norwegian journalist has admitted he fabricated interviews with Bill Gates and Oprah Winfrey, including the interesting (but wholly fictional) admission from Gates that he never carries more than a dime in his pocket and "makes $1 bets with his wife." All proceeds from the bets benefitted the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.
