Spit Take 'Fresno Bee' Admits Falling for Reader Goldfish Hoax

Just call it the Great Goldfish Hoax. Perpetrated on The Fresno (Calif.) Bee.

The paper revealed it had been hoodwinked by a pair of local residents into believing a fat, blind goldfish, lost in its owner's pool, reappeared on someone else's lawn.
