This secial report by Chris Morris and Armando Iannucci was originally published in the Observer on the 6th month anniversary of 9/11. Well worth reading if you missed it first time round

My favourite in the timeline is

24th January: Hosting the film Baftas, Stephen Fry delivers an unspeakably trite and f**k-up heap of shit urging film makers to 'keep telling stories' in the face of world events - as if films make any f**k difference to anything, least of all the advancement of peace, as if in fact they don't more often promote, through piss like Black Hawk Down, the very surfeit of self-regarding superiority that makes the American West so unpopular in the first place. Naturally the audience of actors and industry luvvies spontaneously applaud like the blinkered, solipsistic, self-congratulating c**t they are.

I think that's a little harsh on Stephen Fry. But yeah those articles are bloody hilarious, the timeline is great, but so is the George Bush's day thing!
