How the Yes Men conned the BBC

Channel 4 reports "Fair enough - the respected BBC World news channel thought they were onto something big because they'd been to a Dow chemicals web-site, bearing the slogans :

"Dow is responsible for the birth of the modern environmental movement."

"Dow. Living. Improved daily."

"Dowkarma - treating others as we would like to be treated."

That's right, this all started with the BBC's visit to a bogus website. You would hav thought the "Dowkarma" would have raised some eyebrows at the BBC but in their anti-American lust, the BBC were happy to believe anything.

Here is what The Yes Men have to say.
