The pro-Conrad Black website www.supportlordblack.com is a truly brilliant Frank Magazine hoax, proving once again that if it seems too funny to be true…
D.B. Scott’s magazine blog reveals the saddest detail, which is that it appears Lord Black himself sent the site a note of thanks and a t-shirt offer. Now I actually do feel sorry for him. He’s becoming that Jon Lovitz character who took Marge Simpson to the prom.
You know, looking at it now, that ribbon up there really should have tipped me off. Brilliant.
