Internet Win For Rev. Falwell
http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2003/...in559511.shtml
Former visitors to the Web sites jerryfalwell.com and jerryfallwell.com are in for a surprise if they click back there today. Instead of serving up parodies of the well-known televangelist, as the Web sites using those names have been, visitors will instead get the real thing: the official site of Jerry Falwell Ministries, complete with Bible quotations and a thought for the day. Falwell said that after the Virginia suit was dismissed he and his lawyers discovered the name Jerry Falwell had been trademarked with Falwell's talk show "Listen America" several years ago. So I guessed I missed out on seeing the parody sites before the were "improved". Were the original sites funny/witty/<insert positive adjective>? |

It was pretty good. You might be able to find some of the original stuff here:
