The Pot and the Kettle Who Lived in a Glass House

Okay, what is wrong with this picture??
Did anyone see the news about "The Simpsons" this week? 20th Century Fox is angry and threatening to sue an independent online video broadcaster for parodying their hit TV show, "The Simpsons." An online article had more details:

"The studio is pressuring online video hub Broadcaster.com to remove "The O.J. Simpsons," three animated clips that re-imagine the Fox series starring the former football star. , The three "O.J. Simpsons" clips are titled "Black and White Christmas," "Warzone" and "If I Did It," which directly references Fox and its decision to withdraw publication of O.J. Simpson's proposed book about the murder of his ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and Ron Goldman."


The Simpsons are suing someone for parody? PARODY????? Are you kidding me? The first three people to comment on this post with a story about an episode of The Simpsons that parodies something gets candy.

That's ridiculous since the Simpsons are one big parody... thats the whole story line they just poke fun at things that are going on in the media.
