U.S. Chamber of Commerce, Fox Business News, Pwnd

(Bumped. To the keyboards, progressives!   - promoted by Bob)

The Joke Revue came early this week. Democracy Now:

The business community got a shock on Monday when its leading advocacy group appeared to make a startling announcement. A statement purporting to come from the Chamber of Commerce said the group had dropped its opposition to congressional climate change legislation and would now even support taxing carbon emissions. The news wires quickly picked up the story, and within minutes it was being reported on the websites of outlets including the New York Times and Washington Post. It also made its way onto cable news, including the Fox Business Network. It was all a prank pulled off by the Yes Men.

The video shows Fox Business News looking even more pathetic than usual:


Separately, Mohawk Fine Paper has left the Chamber because of the body’s extremist Denier position.
