Since you're not American, you might not be aware of this, but the people who think the moon landing was faked are an astonishingly low number of conspiracy nuts and cranks. If they seriously make up more than about 0.5% of the American population (which is still a really noisy 1.5 million or so, so I may be off by a considerable margin one way or the other), I would be absolutely amazed, especially since "Mythbusters" took it on a while ago.

Leaving aside the very real problems with the modern depiction of Tony Stark, the general idea of the character at the moment seems to be that he's about the future. Between Ellis and Fraction, he's gone from corporate raider to transhuman futurist, which makes him a good viewpoint character for a story that's about how far we've come since the '40s. Fury's big modern character hook is that he himself hasn't come very far at all, so a similar story with him in Tony's spot would be mostly Fury drinking whiskey and telling Steve to man up.
