Unintentionally Punking the News, WWE Style

This "frightening" scene from WWE's Million Dollar Mania shows chairman Vince McMahon getting injured by some scaffolding, and then being "rushed to the hospital." Except as most WWE fans and the breathing American public know, stunts like these are part of WWE's fictitious plotlines — a manly alternative to, say, Desperate Housewives. That the whole scene was a well-choregraphed set up was lost on Houston affiliate KHOU, which reported the gimmick – or the press release – as an actual news item. [KHOU via BOH]
