If I were in Nixon's shoes and I knew we didn't have the ability at that time but we were in a space race with the Ruskies I would fake particular aspects of the program to fill in the gaps. Even if we knew we could land on the moon I would still put in place staged video on the chance something did go wrong just for counter intelligence.

BTW I'm on the fence, I'm not conviced either way. I tend to believe, as with any goverment program, the truth lie somewhere in the middle. I believe we've all seen things that were real and some that were fake. The hard part is determining which are which.
