"When plunder becomes a way of life for a group of men living together in society, they create for themselves in the course of time a legal system that authorizes it and a moral code that justifies it."
OK .. you gotta see this one. A Cleveland TV station is following reports of a black bear in local neighborhoods ... but they can't find a bear to video. Soooo.......

Bear Story.
You mean that was a fake bear? I thought it was real. bummer
bear poop
At first I thought these guys escaped from NBC, but when I realized I wasn't going to see any rigged exploding gas tanks, I knew they were just having fun.
At least we have a definitive answer about what the bear does in the woods.
bears with WMDs
tshirt-doctor, you mean the bear bought poison gas? The story is about a bear, after all. The problem with the story is the proper term is "African-American", not "black". Clearly, everyone in the story is racist.
Tomorrow morning
I'm going to wake up between Jennifer Anniston and Teri Hatcher...where did I put my crayons and cardboard?
Black Bears
LOL! That women would probably drop dead of fright in my neck of the woods (literally, on the woods part), not a day goes by that some black bear isn't taking a short cut through town.
Bear Scat
I think there's some bear scat in D.C. OMG!
LOL Bears
plz no be shute....meez karboored!!!
WMD
the kurds were killed when he was an ally with the US. and he bought those poison gas from our allies like germany. doesn't that make you proud?
it does, doesn't it.
Bear Beer summit
I guess after the "Black Bear" profiling done by police (how come they don't know if it was a white bear, kola bear, panda bear, or brown bear?) there will be news of a Bear Beer Suimmt.

THANK YOU! Took the word right out of my mouth.
Fricking Hilarious
That has to be the best inside joke news story I've seen. I love the rabbit at the end! "I'm faster than a bear soooo... I'm good."

Only if it is a Polar Bear
Lane Meyer: Buzz Kill
Lane, thank you for being a buzz kill. Thanks for using a funny moment to show us what kind of a moron you are. Go back to the democraticunderground where you'll be surrounded by equally miserable people. Oh, and BTW, this wasn't a FoxNews broadcast genius. It was a Fox affilliate so the next time you're trying to be snarky, get a clue. No WMD's in Iraq. Tell that to the Kurds.
in a hammock????????????????????
there was a bit on aminal planit......black bear chillin' in a hammock......waitin' on his check......
reports of a black bear
Isn't this profiling?
Next, on CNN and MSNBC
They will be reporting on covert KKK activity in Congress with cardboard cutouts of people in white hoods on the Republican side of the House.
lighten up folks
Obviously the news department was having some fun with this story. It was brilliant - and the editor who approved it must have been one toke over the line. There are lots of stories that should be reported this way. We live in absurd times.
"So we know that a bear scats in the woods..." LMFAO!!
Look out!
It's man-bear-pig! Owl gore would be proud.
So if a bear mauls a black guy in the woods and no one is around to see it, is he a racist bear?
Probably.
Blackbear
They say a BlacK bear and called 911. These people are obviously racist!!
it's not friday

Great Comedy
- Thanks for the laugh this morning
If this story takes off...
If the national news rooms get a hold of this story and video, they will likely air it to keep coverage of the march on D.C. to a minimum.
After all, there were only 50,000 people there, cardboard bears are FAR more important than that little march. Especially when they're black.
You an beat a cardboard cut out climbing a tree. One of the most realistic recreations my eyes have ever witnessed. Now we know where the staff from Unsolved Mysteries went for work after it was canceled.
Poor Suffering Bear
Upon close inspection at the end of the video, you can clearly see that the bear’s leg is broken! Was this bear harmed in the making of the video? I’m calling PETA (People Eating Tasty Animals) to report this…
Typical fox news
I think we are all used to fox news not really caring about "facts".
Democrat Foley, WMDs in Iraq Bush winning 2000 election Giving glenn beck eye drops to cry
comic relief
Thanks for the comic relief. Loved the bear cutout climbing the tree.
LAUGHING OUT LOUD!!!
I LOVED the comment "This recreation identifies how witnesses say the bear escaped" I have to say that is the best line ever*. I will be chuckling all day because of it. Thanks Neal!!! *this week
Just damn....
Hey, when they do the "Hunting Bigfoot in Cleveland" story, can I please run with the Sasquatch cutout?????
Technically, this is better journalism than you'd find on MSMTV
Why? Because as ridiculous as it was, it was at least accurate and honest. They did not try to pass off the cardboard cutout as a real bear! Therefore this is better journalism than you'd find on MSMTV...er MSNBC.
I loved the part where they talk about pets, but showed a picture of a robin on the roof of a house.
RACIST
Might I add that this clip is RACIST it's a BLACK bear that is frightening WHITE people. Faux News is obviously running this to bring Barak Obama's poll numbers down
Racism
I am sure the missing bear has to have something to do with racism! Seems everything else does today? Perhaps we can get Jimmy Carter to weigh in. I know he was good with wild rabbits!
I Spotted a Bear
I spotted a UFO last week. I was too stunned to take any pictures (again). Here is a cardboard cutout of what people that did NOT see it think it looked like. Yeah, that's pretty close I think. It probably looked something like this when it was flying away. It is very exciting.
Bear video
This wouldnt have even been reported on if the bear were white.
Yesterday's News
Old, old, old news. This was done earlier this year (or was it last year?). It's already made the "giggle-fest" rounds. Where have you people been?
This has to be fake
I agree with the other commentators this has to be an Onion parody, or some sort of a joke story that the news station ran. It would have been easy for any station to get file footage of a black bear running around. Plus the rabbit "interview" was kinda a dead giveaway. But lets see how many people fall for this.
Stupid People
I especially liked the part with the guy running with the bear cutout as a "recreation" of how the bear got away. Either the news editor is a moron or one hell of a sense of humor.
That's the best video I've seen in a long time. I love the recreation of the bear escaping. Too funny.
LOLOLOL
I showed this to my entire office staff and you couldn't even hear the news anchor we were laughing so hard. What a great way to start the morning. Keep 'em coming!
No Way
This has got to be fake. It's still funny though.
Bear in Cleveleand
Very nice tongue in cheek reporting. "I'm good. I'm faster than a bear." Silly large head rabbit, cardboard cut out bears need help to move anyway.
Awww. I liked the rabbit!
Black Bear
Too funny! I can't believe they actually went ahead with this. I hope they were not being serious.
BEAR "SIGHTING"
This is journalism? Looks more like an Onion video to me!
