😈 Fox News had no idea they got trolled hard by @AWRootbeer.

“Fox News got duped into taking an obvious joke about a root beer company’s beloved mascot and turning it into fodder for the endless culture wars.

A&W issued a statement on Tuesday declaring a modification of their mascot Rooty the Great American Root Bear. The fast food & root beer chain said its “polarizing” mascot will no longer be pants-less. Rooty will, going forward, wear jeans.

The statement is a clear nod to the announcement from M&Ms that it suspending its “spokescandies,” which have been the subject of hysteria on Fox News for months.”
