Vice-presidential candidate Sarah Palin unwittingly took a prank call from a Canadian radio comedian posing as French President Nicholas Sarkozy, the Associated Press reports.
“The call was made by a well-known Montreal comedy duo Marc-Antoine Audette and Sebastien Trudel. Known as the Masked Avengers, the two are notorious for prank calls to celebrities and heads of state.
“Audette, posing as Sarkozy, speaks in an exaggerated French accent and drops ample hints that the conversation is a joke. But Palin seemingly does not pick up on them.”
