First, it's hearsay.

Second, people believe it all the time, especially when it is coming from an official source like Z net.

Third, I'm not so wealthy I can pay to maintain this website and then destroy my credibility by just making things up, which could easily be disproved. Chomsky could write an article tomorrow about how great Ron Paul is and I'd be finished before I was started.
