Roger Stone a member of Nixon's notorious CREEP Committee has publicly spilled the beans on the moon landing
Roger Stone: Moon Landing Video Was A "Hoax"

That's your best evidence? A random tweet from a conspiracy loon?
Roger Stone claimed that video of the moon landing was “a hoax ... shot in a warehouse in” New Jersey. Stone is a longtime top Donald Trump adviser and one of the Republican presidential nominee’s go-to sources for research.
Stone, who remains in regular contact with Trump (and whose talking points and theories Trump regularly adopts), is an ardent conspiracy theorist. For example, he has claimed that the Clintons orchestrated the murder of four people this year; the Clintons killed John F. Kennedy Jr.; President George H.W. Bush tried to kill President Reagan; President Lyndon Johnson killed President John F. Kennedy; and Sen. Ted Cruz’s father is connected to Kennedy assassin Lee Harvey Oswald.

I've just popped in to post a link to this story, which while not bearing directly on the Apollo debate, does give some idea of exactly how easy it is to deceive people about images from space.
TL;DR - some cowboy outfit rebroadcast years-old NASA footage, claimed it was a live broadcast, and 28 million viewers not only never suspected a thing but convinced themselves that the astronauts in the film were interacting with them!

I think the fact that the news story you linked to exists is testament to that.

The stories I have linked to state that tens of millions of people watched it and believed it was the real thing, and that astronauts in the film were interacting with viewers.
Obviously, it was rumbled by someone in the media, who bothered to check against NASA's EVA schedules, or we wouldn't be reading about it in the first place.

We get it OK - people were fooled. Now you need to try and absorb ours: people who know their stuff sussed it out straight away, just like the Apollo live TV broadcasts would have been sussed out straight away by the myriad of technical experts and journalist who sat through live mission audio and TV if there had been anything suspicious. Just like genuine experts would be able to see something wrong with any of the Apollo evidence. By 'genuine' I mean people who actually know stuff, as opposed to amateur keyboard warriors with an axe to grind and fraudsters making money out of a story.
You can't fool all the people all the time.
