Friends and I used to do this very thing to create humorous and imposable parody "newspaper clippings" back in the very late `80s and early `90s. We only ran them about 4 generations, doctoring each generation with whiteout to get rid of the pasteup "lines" from the edges of the different pieces of paper stuck together to create the "article." By the 5th generation it looked ok for just a casual glance.
What is shocking is someone or some people are so juvenile to think this old joke would pass inspection at this level of scrutiny?
Can they REALLY be that stupid?
It sounds cliche but I am genuinely surprised by this.
I have to continually remind my kids, ages 16 thru 22, that when I was a kid we had about SEVEN TV channels, we had no cable or Nintendo or VCRs, etc. Of course, they are incredulous when I mention it -- just like we couldn't imagine what the world was like for our parents w/o TV, or refrigerators, or even indoor toilets!
The most interesting thing about all of this is that SeeBS SHOULD have caught these forgeries, but Dan Blather was blinded by his HATRED for Dubya, and conservatives in general, and hastily jumped on this story.
I think that ole Dan should now join his good "friend" Tom Brokaw in retirement.
