The chamber of commerce say yes to climate change: The Yes Men do it again
In case you missed it, The Yes Men, infamously known for staging large scale media "punks" where they mimic companies and report the kind of news many people would like to hear...delivered some good news again.
Yesterday they pretended to be spokesmen for the Chamber of Commerce, a group that has been under scrutiny for it lack of action regarding climate change, and as a result, has lost several high profile members.
Rachel Madow covered the Yes Men's prank on Commerce, and brought in one of our fav-la-fav political reporters Kate Sheppard to speak about her experience at the press event. Known for her sas, snark, and great political reporting we'll say, "we knew Kate when..." she gave Current Green video updates.
See Kate's video updates on the state of the climate bill:
House climate update
Dispatch from DC
The Yes Men Fix the world (movie trailer)
More of Kate Sheppard's articles on Mother Jones
Current Comedy's take on the Yes Men hoax
