I enjoy reading the fake news sites at times, and a while back I even toyed with the idea of making one of my own.  Here’s a silly one I wrote about Al Gore. 

Al Gore visited Penang on Monday giving a TED talk at WOU on the dangers of global warming. During his talk, he asked if anyone in attendance could remember a time when the temperature in Penang dipped below 22 degrees (72 F).  Shockingly, his point was underscored emphatically when no one at all volunteered a response.  Gore replied, “This long sustained hot weather of Penang underscores the seriousness of global warming.“  Gore is next off to Jakarta which has also had a long string of warm weather.

(Note: Before the talk, Gore voiced his great displeasure in the fact that Ted Turner was actually not in attendance.  Supposedly, the organizers were trying to fly Ted Knight from the Mary Tyler Moore show to Jakarta to meet him for the next talk.)
