April Fools' Day 2015: The best hoax news stories from around the internet
Once more into the Dad-joke breach, dear friends
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.It's that time of year again, when the weather gets warmer and I start only wearing cut-off jean shorts like a hillbilly and standing next to sprinklers with my mouth open. Oh, also it's April Fools' Day!
It seems to get bigger every year, and I'm convinced by 1 April, 2029 Nasa will fly the first manned mission to Mars only to turn it around inches from the surface just to fully commit to the joke.
