Crazy Like a Faux

Share this

It was apparently just a matter of time. A parody website called the "Faux News Channel, P.N.N. (Pentagon News Network)" has received a letter from attorneys for the Fox News Network. The attorneys object, among other things, to the sale by Faux of "Bill O'Reilly Hitler Youth" t-shirts. They express concern that people may confuse the real Faux with the fake Fox ... or is that vice-versa? Faux responds: "Now isn't that a hoot: to be accused of 'incredibly poor taste' and being 'highly offensive' by a representative of the network responsible for such benchmarks of good taste as 'Temptation Island 3,' 'Joe Millionaire' and 'Stupid Behavior Caught On Tape.' Folks, the irony is so thick around here you can cut it with a knife."
