A pseudofact is a piece of information that, despite being completely false, is far more interesting than the equivalent correct information. Because pseudofacts are more interesting, they are more likely to get repeated. This results in people who believe them because it's what their friends and family has always told them. This belief is often strong enough to ward off solid evidence of the contrary.
