Being the first to report and cover such major stories can be a life changing event.

    This article caught my eye, because it gives a statement insisting that the Holocaust in fact did not happen. In school I was taught that it did happen, I was shown evidence (Survivors, pictures, movies, etc). I believe this article is a myth. This is another example of misinformation, and how one can be mislead from things your taught in school vs things you read on the internet.
