Friday night hilarious

That mainstream media we keep hearing about, the responsible ones with layers of editors and fact-checkers to make sure things don’t go wrong? Well, MSNBC was suckered by a news parody site. Twice. In the latest one, they thought they found a blog by Al Sharpton on the Michael Vick case, and published quotes from it. They were informed it was a parody site. Their non-correction states that they determined the blog was “a hoax.” NewsGroper fired back with an utterly hilarious response. Really. Put down your drinks and click this link, because it is laugh-out-loud funny. (But first read the backstory at Hot Air.)

Here’s how NewsGroper starts the response to MSNBC:

Excuse me, Mr. Alex “Investigative Reporter” Johnson of MSNBC, but before you go calling people a hoax, maybe you should take a long look in the mirror. (If you don’t see your reflection, it means you are a bigot.)

It gets better.
