Today’s Video: The prank that wasn’t

Some stories speak for themselves:

A Florida congresswoman, certain she was the victim of a joke, hung up on President-elect Barack Obama -- not once, but twice.

Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, R-Fla., told that Obama wanted to speak with her, cut the caller off, telling the person on the other end she thought "this is a joke" by a radio station known for pulling pranks, CNN reported Thursday….

"This was pretty embarrassing," Ros-Lehtinen said Thursday on ABC's "Good Morning America.

Ros-Lehtinen may have seemed a little too paranoid by rejecting Obama’s call. Yet the Miami-based radio station she cited has had a history of prank calling leaders like Hugo Chavez and Fidel Castro.

One of the best-known pranks played by the aforementioned radio station was on Chavez a few years ago. The prank itself is funny though it takes an ugly turn in the end when the DJs berate Chavez by calling him a “terrorist” and a “dickhead.”
