Jacko Digest: Taylor Swift stiffs Dead Jacko

This just in from sister publication Jacko Digest:

Jacko Digest reports: Stone-dead Michael Jackson killed at the American Music Awards, winning four pointy plastic phallic symbols for the mantle at his multimillion-dollar hyperbaric burial chamber in Jackson Hole.

As media e-jacko-lation ensues, the nation's leading jacko-logists estimate $1.2 trillion in jacko-nomic impact.

Pretty young thing Taylor Swift, who beat Dead Jacko for Artist of the Year, said: "To even be mentioned in a category with Michael Jackson, who we will miss and love forever, is both an unimaginable honor and a little creepy." Kanye West could not be reached for a pompous self-aggrandizing comment.

In other highlights Lady Gaga performed at a flaming piano, "in honor of that time Michael's hair caught on fire."

Palin calls National Geographic cover 'sexist'

Palin calls National Geographic cover 'sexist'

By John Breneman

Responding to criticism from Sarah Palin that her depiction on the cover of National Geographic was "sexist and oh-so-Newsweek," editors at the magazine defended the use of a provocative image paired with the headline, "GOP Cougar Unleashed!"

"Our interest in Sarah Palin is strictly anthropological," said editor Jack Wildebeest. "Plus we wanted to sell a couple million magazines."

Palin claimed the magazine played "gotcha" by tricking her into admitting that she doesn't believe in evolution.

According to the article: "Palinus Politicus (species: anti-homo sapiens) is a fierce, cold-blooded carnivore often mocked in the political jungle for stalking as prey the swifter, nimbler, more intelligent Kenyan Obama."

Palin, riding a wave of publicity with the release of her best-selling autobiography "Going Vogue" and a controversial Newsweek cover, also complained about sexist cover treatment in the Christian Science Monitor, Ebony and the Reader's Digest swimsuit edition. She is calling a report in Vanity Fair "unbalanced."


Sarah 'Going Vogue' in maverick memoir

By John Breneman

Media buzz over the new best-seller by conservative queen bee Sarah Palin climaxes today as "Going Rogue: An American Life" finally hits bookstores.

Also out today, "Going Rouge: An American Nightmare," a book of essays critical of Palin complied by two editors at The Nation and featuring a nearly identical cover.

And now, completing the trilogy, a hot new Palin parody from Humor Gazette Media -- "Going Vogue: A Real American ... Huh?"

With startling revelations about the former beauty queen (Miss Communication) turned Joe Six-Pack hockey mom, "Going Vogue" is already getting rave reviews from the godless elite liberal media and President Obama's death panels.

The publication -- described as "a revisionist look at a revisionist autobiography by America's most fabulous fabulist" -- reveals that along with creationism, Palin is a devout believer in creating her own reality.

"Going Vogue" confirms that Palin does not believe in evolution and breaks the news that she supports an Evolutionary War pitting "real Americans" against liberals and apes. She also reiterates her belief in the right of every fetus to own a gun.

In the parody, Palin takes shots at John McCain for choosing her to be one heartbeat (or ruptured spleen) away from the presidency, and she sprinkles the book with fawning references to God and Ronald Reagan, part of her ongoing campaign to be the conservative movement's Cute Rockne.

Fresh digs at Katie Couric for playing "gotcha"? You betcha.

In addition to breaking new jokes about Palin's call for the U.S. to adopt tougher sanctions against David Letterman, the abridged (to nowhere) edition of "Going Vogue" spotlights past Humor Gazette reportage on the Foxy Newsmaker. (See videos below)

Palin's "family values" shtik is increasing her family's value by millions -- with her best-selling book, lucrative reality TV opportunities, workout DVDs and a new line of Sassy Sarah bobble-head political action figures.

Miss Piggy spreads swine flu on 'Sesame Street'

Miss Piggy spreads swine flu on 'Sesame Street'

(Today's episode of Triple-Action News
brought to you by the letters H1N1)

Filming of a popular PBS children's program ground to a halt today, as dozens of cast members reportedly caught swine flu when longtime colleague Miss Piggy blew out the candles on a birthday cake marking the show's 40th anniversary.

The Sesame Street Journal is reporting that Miss Piggy -- the lovelorn, porcine prima donna -- is under quarantine as a carrier of the deadly H1N1 virus. Kermit the Frog is said to be praying his longtime friend doesn't "croak."

Meanwhile, U.S. Rep. Roosevelt Franklin has sponsored legislation mandating that the H1N1 vaccine be made more widely available to the muppet community. But he admitted that, for now, his swine flu initiative is "just a bill, sitting here on Capitol Hill."

The Sesame Street Journal is also reporting that PBS superstar Big Bird has been identified as a possible carrier of the deadly and horrifying avian flu.

In a related story: Triple-Action News anchorman Reid Page needles the media's coverage of the swine flu "oink-idemic," with expert insight from porcine pundit Dr. Napoleon Hamm.

Swine flu over the cuckoo's nest

Swine flu over the cuckoo's nest

Good evening. I’m Triple-Action News anchorman Reid Page.

Tonight – Swine flu: Friend or foe?

Despite claims that humans cannot get swine flu from pigs, fears about a possible oink-idemic are sweeping the nation.

And – this just in – a new Internet rumor that director Steven Spielberg contracted H1N1 from R2D2.

Neither Mr. Spielberg nor Mr. D2 could not be reached for comment.

Questions about the swine flu outbreak abound, including how it might impact our nation’s pork-based economy.

Fortunately, the media is rolling up its sleeves to inject a dose of calm amid the hysteria – reporting that you CANNOT get swine flu from corndogs, hog jowls or pigs in a blanket. And there is no need to fear knackwurst or bratwurst, except in a wurst-case scenario.

Epidemiologists agree that swine flu vaccine offers the best protection, but say it comes with a risk ... of being trampled by the mobs trying to get some.

Meanwhile, the CDC says signs of possible exposure to the virus include rutting, oinking and speaking in Pig Latin.

To help put things in perspective, we go now to our chief swine flu correspondent, Dr. Napoleon Hamm.

***

DR. NAPOLEON HAMM (played by a pig puppet):

Yaahh! Humans gettin’ swine flu from us pigs. That’s hogwash, see.

Just the udder day I was down at The Sty shootin’ the slop with a couple a sows. And one of em tells me Wolf Blitzer sez Jimmy Dean’s under quarantine. Can’t get the vaccine.

Agghh! I’m sicka hearin about swine flu.

Swine flu got my bruddah but it’ll never get me, see.

SNEEZES

***

ANCHORMAN REID PAGE (now sporting a pig snout):

There you have it. Human beings cannot get swine flu from pigs.

However, just to be safe the Dept. of Homeland Security is cautioning people to avoid unprotected relations with members of the porcine community and warning all Americans to stay at least seven degrees away from Kevin Bacon.

Finally, President Obama is urging the American people to go about their daily affairs with an appropriate level of media-fueled swine flu paranoia.

Reporting LIVE from our state-of-the-art Triple-Action Newsroom, I’m anchorman Reid Page.
