I have not heard the expression faux (french for false) in journalism but Fake news is common. "Faux News" is used to refer to Fox News by people who think Fox News is untrustworthy, to say the least. Fox News -- Faux News Get it? I see. A word game. There is a town here called Gothenburg. They play with words all the time. So much that we from Stockhom had to do a sitcom about it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=57Pa8cJjNi4 Every sentence is a silly joke. All people in Gothenburg are called Glenn:) ID: 1725059 ·

If you Anglicize the pronunciation and say it the way it looks (instead of the French "foe"), it comes out "fawkes" which is pretty similar to Fox.

Second, I just wish people would learn that they can, and should, make their movies holding the phone horizontally rather than vertically.

It says either "Yes, I really am an airline captain" or "You have three seconds to get this crap off of me before I shred your face. Two, one..." LANGUAGE, LANGUAGE, where is that moderator log??? Ops, wrong web site. As you may have guested, I was drafted last Sunday after 3 1/2 months on the other web site and 1,500 post. The truth is they have been interested in me as a moderator for about two months and I turned them down twice. It turned out they needed 4 moderators and the United States was where they were hurting the most. Because we have children as young as 13 years of age on the site, the language must be squeaky clean, subject matter has different rules and pictures are carefully monitored. Today I worked through two violations documenting everything. Being a moderator is a real pain but somebody needs to do it. We have about 6 ranks of moderators and I am second from the top in rank, I was looking over past reports and some days they write up as many as 10 people a day. With an active membership of 750 a month and registered users around 20,000 it can be a very busy site. The most amazing thing is the entire web site is run on less than $40,000 a year but there is a small group of people doing all the grunt work in their spare time. As for the number of people we help, I don't know but at any given time we have 75-90 users logged in and about 5 times that many reviewing the contents of the web site but unwilling to become a registered users. Every so often one of the guest users will become a registered user and tell us how much the information helped them. We must be doing something right. ID: 1726422 ·
