No pity for Fools fed fibs on penguins and presidents

MEDIA around the world regaled their audiences with stories of stretched French presidents and bisexual James Bonds yesterday, proving the tradition of April Fool’s jokes was alive and kicking.

Britain’s Daily Telegraph printed pictures of penguins apparently flying to the Amazon, while many papers ran a spoof story saying luxury carmaker BMW had invented a model that electrocuted dogs which tried to relieve themselves against its wheels.

Australian radio station 2UE marked April 1 by reporting that the Pope would conduct a special mass for homosexuals during July visit Down Under.
