They are fake ads in the Hawaii papers!
You said — They are fake ads in the Hawaii papers!

I wouldn’t put too much stock in the ads in the paper one way or another, actually. But, I’m not exactly sure if you are saying that the “presentation” of those ads are fake “today” — or — they were fake “back then”...
In other words, is someone “making up” the ads and then saying that they existed back then (but they didn’t really exist). Or is someone saying that a person put in an ad that was intended to be fake back then?
I don’t know which of the two you are saying...
