Geraldo discusses several famous hoaxes such as Orson Welles' radio show "The War of the Worlds" in these excerpts. Featured guests and personalities include Howard Koch, Alan Abel, Laura Lamer, Paul Hiatt, George McFarland, Frank Shorter, Craig Wolff, Cheryl Ann Sharin Thompson, and Christopher Dickinson. These are spoon fed scripted media hoaxes, but some of the methods and the use of actors is interesting. It makes one wonder if a media, family, or other group was rich and powerful enough, could they create events which do not appear to be hoaxes yet fool everyone? Food for thought. Aired Feb. 14, 1991.
