Most of these started out as speculation and jokes. Maybe we have a stupidity (i.e. critical thinking) problem rather than a misinformation problem. Only two of these (angle grinders and access to the offices) can really be considered lies or mistakes by an otherwise reputable source (the NYT) and one of those doesn't seem to have been refuted or retracted yet.


It looks like they retracted/corrected the angle grinder thing but they didn't use a retraction yet for the "access to office" info, maybe that means that was correct? (for a section of the FB workforce, of course).
