The Chamber of Commerce held a press conference in DC today to declare that it's ending its longstanding, controversial opposition to climate-change regulations. No it didn't. [UPDATED with fun media clips below!]
It was The Yes Men, of course, the liberal group behind the Fake New York Post and the Fake New York Times and plenty of other, similar stunts in which they pose as representatives of some evil corporate entity and pretend that said corporate entity has acquired a conscience, thereby embarrassing said corporate entity when it turns out, no, it was a hoax, Dow Chemical really isn't giving shit to Bhopal survivors, or whatever.

lol, I love them! The re-used burgers was so awesome! I think that they bring more light to corporate fraud through their er.. "stunts" than many reporters because they get more attention~ exposure with style!

Kudos to the Yes Men!
I especially like the press release, announcing the event was issued by one Erica Avidus, whose last name is Latin for "greedy."
