Slow news day?

In the Corner, John J Miller complains:

2. Coke: I'm thinking of the one with polar bears and penguins. Don't they know that polar bears live in the Arctic and penguins in the Antarctic? This is biological illiteracy.


Somehow I don't find penguins and polar bears together a lot more difficult to believe than polar bears and penguins smiling at each other while they open and share bottles of Coke®.
