And a classic example of how to make a story from absolutely nothing.

From E!

So True? So False? Is Johnny Depp Moving to Clooney Country?!

Oh, la vita è bella, all right. And getting more so by the minute.

Just when it seemed like Venice couldn't get any more picturesque comes word that Johnny Depp is apparently taking a page from the George Clooney playbook and putting down roots in Italy.

So at least The Tourist was good for something. Other than punching up Ricky Gervais' Golden Globes monologue, that is. According to the Daily Mail (and countless proud Italian news outlets), Depp was so inspired by the city while filming that he recently plunked down a whopping $13.7 million for a vacation home in the sinking city.

And here we had only just come to terms with losing Depp to France. Have we lost him to Italy, too? Hold onto your passports, this rumor is…

So false!

Once again, a story picked up by everybody to be believed as true. Maybe true, maybe false. No one checks to find out - they just print the words.
