Line 114:
Bluff the lIstener: Do the panelists really invent the fake news stories themselves? I have the impression that they are written by staff writers and just read by the panelists.

* The show that airs is roughly 44-46 minutes, but live taping of the shows can last around 1 1/2 hours or more. The edited version cuts out a number of panelist questions and some of the Lightning round questions, along with any pick ups, redos, or recording of additional material to cover when things change between taping (Thursday nights) and airing (Saturday and/or Sunday). One example was the taping when Scotland was holding their vote for independence, they recorded a bit in case the vote went "Yes" and another bit in case the vote went "No".
* As far as I know, the (non-true) bluffs are written by the panelists and, over the years, common themes and trends can be picked out for each panelist. For example: Mo Rocca has used the surname "Bagnoli" a number of times, Paula Poundstone has used one surname multiple times, etc. --[[User:Questionlp|questionlp]] ([[User talk:Questionlp|talk]]) 01:11, 14 June 2015 (UTC)
