Re:A French labor agreement bans work emails after 6 PM by ignostic on Thursday April 10, 2014 @06:46PM (#7570193)
Our reaction to this news is even more interesting than the fake news itself. Professional communities are shocked and stunned at the stupudity of the fake law. Meanwhile, others celebrate the victory over unfair work hours and lamen the fact that they have to take emails after 6.

In many ways this shows our views on work hours. We think everyone should be free to work hard, but there are clearly some strong feelings about the lack of work-life balance at their jobs.

It's also a little shocking and embarrassing that PC Magazine, New York Magazine, Gawker, Mashable, and more have picked up the story with no fact checking.

It's not shocking at all that Gawker picked up the story without fact checking it. They're not in the business of facts.
