Isn't satire great? A satirical report from the clever folks over at Postcards from the Pug Bus claimed last week that Britney Spears was now going to "give away" her sex tape for free to keep her soon to be husband K-Fed from cashing in on the alleged tape.

| Britney Spears Sex Tape: Fake News Makes Real Waves Again |
Now the fake news is making real waves as several sources are now carrying the story as legitimate.
The same thing happened back when the same web site reported that Britney Spears was set to pull an Angelina Jolie and head to Namibia to have her second baby.
Some 'official' from the Namibian government then commented on that 'report' and even the Associated Press bit.

Now a handful of sources have been fooled by the Pug into reporting the story as fact. That's good satire. Check out these "quotes."
"Brit figures she'll beat that sucker to the punch, just like she did by giving away pictures of Jayden James," said Spears family friend Nyla Price, 55, the owner of Nyla's Burger Basket.
"Half of nuthin' is nuthin', and that's what her lying skunk of a husband will get if she gives that video away before he can find some sleazeball to buy it."

Pug jokes that according to Ms. Price, the original sex video is "more like forty-five minutes long" than the four hours Mr. Federline is alleging.
"All y'all know how men exaggerate the length of everything," she laughed.
A member of Ms. Spears' family told reporters that Ms. Spears wants not only to cut Mr. Federline out of any profits made from the video but also out of the video itself.
"I think she's fixin' to replace her old man's face with the face of a real star," said Jamesden Jay Spears, the singer's second cousin by marriage to her first cousin.
"I hear they can do things like that with some computer program called PhotoSmart. Wouldn't it be cool if she replaced Kevin with somebody like Toby Keith?"

And the kicker is the name of the new Brit CD:
Ms. Spears, who is in Miami working on her comeback CD, "The Reach Around," did not respond to repeated text messages.
