'Iraq War Over': Prank on NYT


A newspaper bearing the New York Times logo was circulated today declaring on it's front page that the war in Iraq was over. The paper was a 14-page counterfeit edition of the New York Times. Other articles in the publication lampooned national institutions such as Exxon-Mobil.

The paper was dated July 4, 2009 and was the brainchild of the Yes Men, a left-leaning activist group.
