OMG, I don't believe it... but I see you are too young and good stories, books, and History don't matter to you

That "prank" was made by the famous movie director and actor Orson Welles way back in the 1930's. So grab his excellent movie Citizen Kane.
He took the story from the book called War of the Worlds, written by H.G. Wells.
