We’re still trying to get the exact details. But the Chamber of Commerce this morning was apparently the victim (if you can call it that) of an elaborate hoax in which it was claimed that the Chamber had decided to go along with robust Climate Change legislation. Reuters seems to have fallen for it. And as we speak the Times and the Post both have wire stories up reporting the Chamber’s dramatic shift. More shortly.
Late Update: The chamber confirms it was punk’d. We’re nailing down the details on who was behind the hoax.
Later Update: Read the fake press release announcing that the Chamber of Commerce had suddenly gone green.
