Thanks so much for this article, beagle...  a cautionary tale about how to start and manipulate rumors using the internet.  It's useful to be reminded of this particularly in light of all the sm "clues" we have been feed this season!
ETA: As the article notes: In the era of viral “wins,” the entire world, now, is one carefully massaged, edited, and satisfying episode of “The Bachelor” — just don’t think too hard about the implications.

You are welcome   . I thought that last part of the article was very interesting. Absolutism vs skepticism.

That was discussed for pages and pages on these boards.

Remember there was a photo to go with it. Maybe this is why the plane video has always seemed off to me.

thanks for the heads up stuckinsc... this was before my time so I appreciated reading about it... but if everyone knows, then that's interesting.. because to your point, given the hoax, I'm surprised that more people don't feel there's something off with the plane video!!

I was reading in another thread were somebody stated there is a possibility that TPTB made Nick the villein because Andi might have made a choice last minute to pick Josh so that people won't feel weird about the ending.  Also, to justify why Andi picked Josh at the end given all the great things she has said about her relationship with Nick.
But I don't see it that way.  If they did not make Nick the Villein, what show would they have had? They had to make him the Villein for added drama and to also hide the love story between Nick and Andi.  Judging from SM, nobody wants Nick to be F1.  I think the more surprising ending/drama and what will keep people talking would be if she picked Nick than if she picked Josh IMHO.  This would garner a lot of sympathy for Josh which will then catapult his chances of becoming the next Bachelor.

^^ABSOLUTELY YES!!

If that was the case, they could have edited out all the hot and heavy and the emotional scenes with Nick.

[stuckinsc]

I don't know why they have edited Nick this way. It may be a complete lack of drama from the guys. In my opinion it is because Andi herself is pretty selfish and unlikeable. So they had to do something to make someone else look bad too and Nick was confident, in my opinion because Andi made him that way, so it was easy to manipulate. Plus the guys who were most upset were the guys without the connection. Josh was somewhat annoyed, but didn't seem nearly as upset as some of the others.

[SueSt]

I'm guessing they probably did a lot of editing!!!    
Mura and others have found a number of deleted scenes which point to even hotter and heavier love declarations and make out sessions.
Someone noted today that there was a big cut on the sneakover date last week after Nick said he wanted to marry her... and I noticed that after that night, on the GD, Nick refers to her as being his 'other' half when we haven't seen this discussion.

The reason the sun sets later in Atlanta than in Milwaukee is because of their relative location within their time zones.

Atlanta is in Eastern Standard--but it is in the western part of the zone. Therefore, the sun sets at a later time than it does compared with the eastern side of that same zone.

Milwaukee is in Central Standard--but it is in the eastern part of the zone, so the sun sets earlier than it does in the western part of that zone (example, the Oklahoma panhandle).

I think what we're seeing is that if the sun were actually setting when that picture was posted, it would have to be taken in the eastern part of whatever time zone it was taken.
