And Chapelle thought he was making an outlandish joke that was so absurd that people would laugh.

3. Was that real?

The Fox tag line looks faked.

[EastKYLiberal]

4. Yeah. Not even a good photoshop. nt

[Motown_Johnny]

6. It was debunked 3 days ago.

Not real.

[baldguy]

5. We are living in an era when sarcasm and irony are dying.

Neither can exist when real life is more outrageous & absurd than we can imagine.

[trumad]

7. True Dat.

I'm having a very difficult time nowadays knowing what is real and what is not.

[Squinch]

8. My talking squirrels keep that straight for me.

[pscot]

14. We live in a world made by TV

It's like Karl Rove said, we make our own reality, such as it is.

In language echoing that of the Cold War, nationalist Russian lawmaker Vladimir Zhirinovsky, said: "Those were not meteorites, it was Americans testing their new weapons.

"John Kerry wanted to warn (Russia’s Foreign Minister) Lavrov on Monday, he was looking for Lavrov, and Lavrov was on a trip.

"He meant to warn Lavrov about a provocation against Russia."

[Hugabear]

13. Zhirinovsky is the Russian male equivalent of Michelle Bachmann

Bat-shit insane

[Coolest Ranger]

11. OMG do they have their own tea party over there.

[Sheepshank]

12. One more indication that Fox is NOT news, it's entertainment.

Doesn't matter which headline is real and which one isn't, Fox News has become a joke.

[MrMickeysMom]

15. God, I miss Dave Chappelle!

I wonder what he must think news is these days?

16. +1

17. Actually, he launched a secret "asteroid drone" to divert its course.

He screwed up though. It was supposed to hit the WBC complex in Kansas and was just a wee bit off course when it slammed into Russia.

19. ZOMG! Dave Chapelle the best. ROFLMAO.
