This thread is for reporting the jokes as we spot them in papers, tv, webpages etc.
Let’s see how many we can get. 
When do you expect them to start, Marco?

I’ve found my first already:
This looks fairly legit until you get to the company comments at the end. 
The comments attributed to Intel:
This is a great day for Intel. For too long, those wannabes in Santa Clara and Ontario have basked in all the attention. Come November, the CPU will reign supreme again! Why buy graphics cards when all you need is an Intel multi-core processor?
I can’t give you guys much more details than this. NDA restrictions and all that, but we have been running Crysis on Nehalem samples and some Core 2 processors. I can’t quote exact numbers but the QX9650 is getting frame rates in the upper 30s. Nehalem samples are currently 50-60% faster but we think it will be closer to twice the performance at launch. Eat that, GPU!

At first I thought this was a joke, and it oughta be, but it ain’t:
A bulletproof bed with a toilet. So much for the saying, “You shouldn’t $#!+ where you sleep.”

Hmmmm…
I kind of fell for this one today:
http://www.gm.tv/index.cfm?articleid=28947
Was watching it this morning and thinking to myself “this can’t be real. Surely it’s nonsense, you just can’t lose that amount of weight in 6 weeks. Why does she look so strange in the before footage, like a skinny girl in a fat suit? But it’s on Lorraine Kelly, it must be true. Silver thread!? That’s rubbish, these things are always found to be rubbish. What’s going on?”
Then when I mentioned it to a colleague I met on the way to the office the first thing she said was “surely it was an april fools”.
That’s when I started swearing.
It’s unfair to do them on breakfast tv.
More awake now, this one’s for our American friends :

Good one from Google today:
http://www.google.com/virgle/index.html
They’ve really spent too much time on this.
Just took the test to see if I could go to mars:
http://www.google.com/virgle/application.html
Well, you’re distressingly normal and could conceivably adjust to life as a deep space pioneer, though we recommend instead that you leave the Mars missions to the serious whack jobs who scored over 130 and instead finish year 3 of law school, tuck your toddler into bed, design Web 2.0 applications, run for Congress or do whatever other normal, healthy, middle-of-the-road thing you’re currently doing with your normal, healthy, middle-of-the-road life. If you’re determined to give Virgle a try, though, you can submit your video here.
The Register have thrown a 2nd one up now as well:

Ima Hogg was an enterprising circus emcee who brought culture and class to Houston, Texas. A storied ostrich jockey, she once rode to Hawaii to visit the Queen. Raised in government housing, young Ima frolicked among a backyard menagerie of raccoons, possums and a bear. Her father, “Big Jim” Hogg, in an onslaught against fun itself, booby-trapped the banisters she loved to slide down, shut down her money-making schemes, and forced her to pry chewing gum from furniture. He was later thrown from his seat on a moving train and perished; the Hogg clan then struck black gold on land Big Jim had forbidden them from selling. Ima had apocryphal sisters named “Ura” and “Hoosa” and real-life brothers sporting conventional names and vast art collections; upon their deaths, she gave away their artwork for nothing and the family home to boot. Tragically, Ms. Hogg (a future doctor) nursed three dying family members. She once sweet-talked a burglar into returning purloined jewelry and told him to get a job. Well into her nineties, she remained feisty and even exchanged geriatric insults with an octogenarian pianist. Hogg claimed to have received thirty proposals of marriage in her lifetime, and to have rejected them all. Hogg was revered as the “First Lady of Texas”, and her name and legacy still thrive today—just ask Ima Pigg, Ima Nut, and Ima Pain, who have all appeared in the U.S. Census.
This one popped up on the Japan Association of Translators mailing list.
