Bert is Still Evil

Even though it’s slightly old news, I still can’t get over the fact that a doctored image of Bert – yes, that Bert – posing with Osama bin Laden has appeared on posters made for bin Laden supporters.

It was later revealed that the posters were created simply by taking images from anywhere on the web – and the old Bert is Evil site (which is now gone, sadly) was one of those sites.

I guess I should start printing up those posters with pictures of Tony Blair and Elmo now…. -pm
