I gave it some thought, and passed on looking into it.

No, you are wrong and the news is right. They report facts accurately. Rest assured. $600 worth of pennies weigh 800 pounds. Obama was born in Hawaii. The economy is improving. Carry on.

Do you think that bank might sell me pennies for $0.775/pound? I'll take all they can get. Even if they are all zinc.
