Nice to see a mainstream (ish) news outlet include some debunking of moon denialists.

  Especially so emphatically -- "Was the moonwalk faked? No!" Usually, you'd see just "Was the moonwalk faked?", and no actual decision to the verity of the moonwalk. This was very nice to see.

  Perhaps it's unfortunate that the media even thinks that these conspiracy theorists even need to be debunked. They wouldn't waste the column-inches (or whatever the online equivalent is) debunking claims from people who think the earth flat, or that cigarette smoking is unrelated to lung cancer. Yet pose the almost the most fantastic conspiracy theory imaginable, and the mainstream media will sprinkle it with just enough fairy dust of credibility that they then have to debunk it.
