Andy Rooney victim of another internet hoax
Cory Bergman December 6th, 2006
An email is going around with a racist commentary falsely attributed to Andy Rooney. “I suppose it’s not important, but I hate the fact that people think I’ve been writing these things,” he said. “That’s hurtful to me.” Rooney is a frequent victim of internet hoaxes. Another commentary falsely circulated under his name praises the virtues of women over age 30. He tracked down the address, only to discover it was a post office box. “I don’t know what I would have done,” said Rooney, who turns 88 next month. “Nothing physical.”

The only valuable thing about receiving this type of libelous garbage is it tells volumes about the person who forwarded it to you. Even if Andy Rooney said it (which he obviously didn’t), why would the idiot sender pass it on to you? Yucch!
