I was just talking to an old school journalist last night about the same topic. A perhaps apocryphal story (it's not on Google, so it can't be true, can it?) but good nonetheless:
Years ago, well before even Murdoch ownership, the NY Post was knicking sports scores from the New York Daily News. Competition being what it was, the Daily News went so far as to not only falsify some scores, but to falsify some schools, making up new institutes of education throughout the 5 boroughs.
I can only imagine the page one headlines once the Post was outed.
