April Fool's Day

It’s too bad that April Fool’s fell on a Saturday this year. We would have welcomed the weekday blogospheric/journalistic pranks from our cubicles.

Fortunately, someone has already taken care of the media April Fool’s jokes. Bob Hirschfeld has done a great fake mock-up of the place every DC journalist turns to (after FishbowlDC, naturally): Poynter.org’s Jim Romenesko column.

“Headlines” include:

  • Washington Post.com hires Jeff Gannon as blogger

  • Judith Miller blames downfall on theft of strawberries

  • Former KR newspapers are auctioned on eBay

Strangest of all is how very possible all these storylines appear to be.
