The Daily Star Takes A Shot At An April Fools Prank

April 1, 2011 · Mustapha Hamoui

From today’s Daily Star editorial:

The Daily Star has considered itself at the cutting edge of international journalism, and the newspaper’s decision to suspend, for the rest of this year, its customary voice — its editor-driven editorial — has resulted from professional reasons. This newspaper believes that the time has come to achieve interactivity with its readers, and the editorial will be a new forum in which The Daily Star can achieve this distinction.

What’s really funny is that you can’t tell if this is a joke or not.
