CNN Chat Prank -- 10:23 pm CST, Update by A.T. Hun

This sort of thing brings a smile to my face. CNN was having an IRC chat between President Clinton, Wolf Blitzer, and online participants. It seems that the IRC server puked many times and one time an enterprising person discovered that the typist for President Clinton hadn't yet logged on again. Thus, he took the President's nickname and sent the following messages:

Personally, i would like to see more porn on the Internet.

Wolf, how about you? Are you all for more porn on the Internet?

You can find the "official" prank page here along with logs of the event and links to the reaction from various media sources. For good "running around like a chicken with your head cut off reporting" check out Fox's report, attempting to tie this prank to the recent DoS attacks, among other things.
