| | Website re-launches
19 Jun 2002
Rarely acknowledged news satire website "DeadBrain" was emerged in non-publicity yesterday as it quietly launched an improved version. Crowds of photographers, journalists and sponsored dog walkers failed to gather outside the Hampshire home of Editor-in-Chief Douglas Ramsbottom this morning, while approximately no TV crews invaded the website's secret headquarters.
Since then, reaction to the re-launched website has been varied. The government has declined to comment on the new design – a move widely interpreted as a climb-down on their previous support for DeadBrain – while the Conservatives had similarly little to say. Party Chairman David Davis, however, did criticise the government over the new design "out of habit".
People in Darlington, however, were more enthusiastic. Around half of the town's computer-literate population is though to regularly visit DeadBrain, so it only follows that several small street parties were held by the two people in question.
President Bush, who by his very nature is the last person anybody would want to comment on this, was the last person to be asked at the end of a stressful day. According to DeadBrain's head of prank calls, Gregory T Mullet, Mr Bush reissued the advice he gave to his country's football team: "I don't know quite what it is you're doing, but good luck with it anyway."
This looks good...
