Great action this morning by the Yes Men and Avaaz. They threw a faux press conference saying that the Chamber had reversed it’s position on global warming. During the press conference, an actual Chamber representative burst in and disrupted the press conference calling the Yes Men frauds.
Lots of media, great video.

This was so awesome. Democracy Now! showed video of even Fox Business buying this and reporting it. Even Rush Limbaugh mentioned it, only to attack the media though.
