Faux News
This was a graphic that ran during a report on Fox & Friends the other day. They were discussing Hillary Clinton challenging Obama to a "Lincoln-Douglas" debate. It has to be one of Fox News's finest moments.
Yep, the one on the left is Frederick Douglass. Not the man Lincoln debated in 1858.

I wish I was surprised.

Awesome.
What's close to that awesomeness, however, is wonkette misspelling moron. Or maybe "moran" is something similar but different with its roots in "Happy Days" and "Joanie Loves Chachi."

Okay - I now see it was intentionally ironic and satirical and I just need to read wonkette more to get the joke.

Well, at least they knew who the "Lincoln" guy was.
