The Financial Times, also known as the pink lady, is one of the premier English language newspapers. But I am sad to report that the FT's sterling reputation was sullied last week. Not, mind you, by shoddy reporting, poor editing, or some journalistic scandal; rather, its name has been tarnished by the arrival of an impostor!
In a hilariously Onion-esque move, a collection of savvy G20 protesters were handing out fake copies of the Financial Times at Waterloo Station in London. The website for the fake newspaper, FT2020, looks pretty well identical to its mainstream target. There's a lot of content, some of it very sharp, so check it out.
