    Interweaving fiction (and humor) with real news poisons the integrity and credibility needed to discuss actual content.

      I think that the fact it was placed in the humor section labels it enough for evaluation.

        I think over-propping the PC25 factory-ouput,
        will diminish anyone's sense of what is real.

        Probably they should not be allowed to operate heavy machinery either.

        I'm just saying.

        If one has no sense of humor, no discussion of actual content is necessary.

          Hhussk:

          That would be true for a "news outlet" (think Fox) or a radio commentator who calls himself an entertainer while upbraiding politicians for not subscribing to his own contorted views. (I'll let you figure out who I might be talking about there.)

          The lines are blurred when a news source does not label part of its content as fiction or humor. But as wtagg pointed out above, this story was submitted in the Humor channel.

            Err, it rubbed Hhusk wrong then, since he is just to the right of darth vader

            (seriously, - in Return Of The Jedi he is onscreen in the background to the right of the emperor in several scenes that were cut because of liberal pressure as usual).

            It doesn't rub me the wrong way
            but I don't get that close and personal with postings anyhow.
