This is too funny. Our post on the fauxtoshopped Iranian missile launch was submitted to Digg.com by someone, and of course the rabid Diggbats immediately buried it to make sure it wouldn’t get to the front page: Digg - Iran’s Photoshopped Missile Launch.

So then someone else submitted the link to Tim Blair’s Daily Telegraph blog, which contained only a link to LGF (without identifying us)—and this Digg post promptly got over a thousand Diggs and made it to the front page: Digg - There’s something fishy about those Iran missile pictures …

And a lot of the commenters are very unhappy to find out that they inadvertently voted for a post from the dreaded Little Green Footballs.

I write the music I like. If other people like it, fine, they can go buy the albums. And if they don't like it, there's always Michael Jackson for them to listen to. -- Frank was talking about his music from the Yellow Shark.
