So the same guy who sold us on the old "Joe the Plumber making out with Kristin Wiig scam" apparently got Fox News and the rest of the country believing his story about Sarah Palin not knowing that Africa was a continent and not a country.
S'crazy, right? Because wouldn't Fox News have people to fact-check this? And yes, Martin Eisenstadt (pictured left next to Joe) says he's a McCain strategist and shares/stole the name of a conservative analyst but didn't the flack over at News Corp bother to Google him or anything? This dude is a total phony.
But it gets weirder.
Sometime Lindsay Lohan lady friend and current Tila Tequila girlfriend Courtenay Semel is the daughter of former Yahoo chief Terry Semel. She is also, as some have described her, a vicious fame-seeking lass. So it makes sense she's being sued by security guard Jaroslaw Jarczok, of Las Vegas' Pure nightclub, who alleges she punched him in the face while drunk and screamed the most awesome line ever:
You just want to enjoy a leisurely dinner at Ye Waverly Inn with two dozen of your closest celebrity and media elite friends, then head home for a high ball and an evening of Googling yourself. But as soon as you step outside the restaurant, FLASHES! The paparazzi are waiting outside, which you totally didn't expect because you hate having your picture taken and published in tabloids and blogs, which is why you dine at off-the-grid restaurants like the Waverly! What to do? Spray 'em!
"If you're going to choose to commemorate some really quite bizarre occasions, and never, never in their history, never once commemorating Memorial Day, which is a very significant holiday in the United States, I think that says something about who Google is …"
Yep, political talking heads are now debating whether or not Google's wacky holiday doodles are patriotic enough. Who says America's news outlets don't focus on the real issues?
