Iran Reports Onion Satire As True

The FARS News Agency in Iran reported the above story as true -- that Iranian President Ahmadinejad was more popular than President Obama among rural White Americans. Although they reported the story as though it was their own (note the attribution above), it was taken, word-for word, from the Onion. It makes one wonder, are they intentionally lying, or do they not understand that the Onion is satire (and nothing in it should be taken literally or seriously)? This is definitely an EPIC FAIL!
