Jaws dropped around Washington today as Reuters reported on a press release from the U.S. Chamber of Commerce announcing that high-profile defections had led to a reversal of their stance against the job-destroying global-warming bill.

Far more jaws dropped, however, in disbelief that Reuters could have fallen for such an obvious hoax. The press release is not on the Chamber's website, but on a fake one. And who owns it? That happy band of anti-capitalist culture jammers, The Yes Men.

Biased and Lefty Reuters needs a reality check every now and then.

Getting tired of their Obama indoctrination reporting and backing slant on economic issues. Which is tied to NBC/CNBC.

lots of connect the dots.
