Fake Microsoft interview published in Norway

The Swedish mass-circulation daily Aftonbladet and Norwegian magazine Mann published an interview with Gates by Bjoern Benkow, a 66-year-old freelance journalist, in which he quoted the software tycoon saying that he never carried small change in his pocket.

But when Microsoft’s spokesman in Norway, Eirik Lae Solberg, saw the article, he contacted his bosses and was told the interview had never taken place, Solberg said.
