I read it as far as "The news comes from The Express" - The Express is one of Britain's four most unreliable newspapers (along with The Sun, The Star and the Daily Mail) and usually concentrates on reports about celebrities, how all foreigners are evil, ghosts, UFOs and anything else where actual facts play second fiddle to truth and quality journalism (in fact the good thing that can really be said about is it used to print Calvin & Hobbes cartoons). The likelihood of anyone at the paper actually having contact with "sources at NASA" is doubtable!
