Default If you've heard a story about Tower Hobbies closing, read this!

In the past day or so there have been plenty of stories about Tower Hobbies going bankrupt. These are false, and the result of someone playing a joke. There's a website where you can create a fake CNN news story that'll look just like a real CNN story, and this particular joke on Tower has been making the rounds through e-mail.

If you want to have a look at the site the joke comes from, here it is: http://cnn.heavyplasma.com/

Here's a quote from Kevin Hisel:
In case any of you missed it, this is a FAKE news page put up by some jokester. As I mentioned in another thread, the is completely untrue. Tower Hobbies is a very healthy R/C company that's been around for over 30 years and will be around for many more to come.

End of story.
