No, when you do a whois for 'fakebook.com' it will pull any registered
NS entries containing facebook.com anywhere in the whois db.
Digging a.gtld-servers.net is the best way to find authoritative NS for
facebook.com, not whois.

Domain names in the .com and .net domains can now be registered
with many different competing registrars. Go to http://www.internic.net
for detailed information.

To single out one record, look it up with "xxx", where xxx is one of the
of the records displayed above. If the records are the same, look them
up
with "=xxx" to receive a full display for each record.

Subject: facebook DNS
It looks like facebook is having DNS troubles. The www.facebook.com
subdomain is delegated to some servers that are no longer answering.
Also apps.facebook.com is a cname to www-college.facebook.com which
gets no reply.
