new york times special edition [hijinks]



did anyone get one of these!?!? the new york times is claiming that "a film promoter, three unnamed times employees and steven lambert, an art professor", are behind the prank, and gawker says the yes men are involved. wednesday's new york times spoof - a 14-page mock up of the july 4, 2009 edition - apparently included distribution of more than 1,000,000 printed copies in various major cities during peak morning commute hours. read the online doppelganger of the times here; read the (real) times' first reaction here. if anyone has a copy i can have or can get me a copy, please do.
