She got the story from “NewsFlavor” Here’s their M.O.:

“It’s an internet based ‘news’ site…. in that it is not ‘news’ at all. They have no professional journalists, adhere to no journalistic standards… anyone can write for them. They pay on articles being picked up by other ‘media’…

For example: I could write a ‘story’, saying that Barack Obama is actually Satan and fake an interview with some ‘anonymous’ source. Then I can file it with ‘newsflavor’ and if some sucker buys it to run it, I get a cut of what they pay. “
