dyke against god hoax

datelinehollywood.com featured an article last week saying:

ROBERTSON BLAMES HURRICANE ON CHOICE OF ELLEN DEGENERES TO HOST EMMYS
Hollywood – Pat Robertson on Sunday said that Hurricane Katrina was God’s way of expressing its anger at the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences for its selection of Ellen Degeneres to host this year’s Emmy Awards. “By choosing an avowed lesbian for this national event, these Hollywood elites have clearly invited God’s wrath,” Robertson said on “The 700 Club” on Sunday. “Is it any surprise that the Almighty chose to strike at Miss Degeneres’ hometown?”

It was a hoax, evangelist Robertson ( yes the one that called for the assasination of President Chavez) never said this in his Sunday television program. But Pat Robertson reacted to the satirical article in a very strange way. He wrote a letter to the editors of datelinehollywood.com:

In the letter he states that New Orleans was destroyed because it's the "epicenter of sinful jazz music". Ellen has got nothing to do with it.
Ellen “DeGenerate" ,"will meet her fate when the Good Lord creates an earthquake centralized directly below the studio where she tapes her talk show."

I wonder, will this get her more viewers?
