Faked wildfires briefing costs US official his job
A US administration official has been left without a job after a fake press conference staged in response to the California wildfires.

He had been due to take over as media chief for the US's top intelligence official yesterday, but he has lost his new job before even taking office, the New York Times reported.

According to the Post, "The hoax began soon after Ledger, 28, was found dead...by the next day, a man claiming to be Kim Ledger managed to get Cruise on the phone, a source said." And guess what? Cruise believed the bullshit! Who would have thought!?! Over the next few days, he "had had a couple of conversations with" Cruise, asking for emotional support, said the source.
