Like similar satirical websites, Christwire's stories have sometimes been erroneously taken at face value.[2]

Topekasnews

Due to the wide public attention at the name Christwire, the site also runs topekasnews.com.[5][6][7][8][9]

One satirical news article by "Haywood Bynum III" pronounced that "Edible Marijuana Candies Kill 9 in Colorado, 12 at Coachella." The Drug Abuse Resistance Education anti-drug organization copied the article onto their website without fact checking the satirical article.[10][11]
