This is worth checking out!
The Yes men who have pulled pranks on Dow Chemical, Exxon, the US government, and others to expose issues they feel important have pulled another stunt, this time on the US Chamber of Commerce.
The Chamber has spent $300,000 a day lobbying against climate change legislation, even causing many of its biggest members to pull out of the chamber.
The Yes men held a fake press conference pretending to the the Chamber and telling reporters that they changed their mind and that they do now support efforts to fight climate change. The news spread around the world before it was discovered to be a hoax and even Fox news reported it live, until being interupted with a note saying it was a hoax.
