From The “Duh!” Files

Long time Fox News columnist Roger Friedman is headed to the unemployment office after reviewing the new “X-Men Origins: Wolverine" flick. Sounds harmless, right? WRONG! The film isn’t set for release until May 1st, but that hasn’t stopped a leaked version from hitting these here Internetz.

Oh, but the story gets better. Friedman covered entertainment for FoxNews.com for a decade. Last week, he wrote that simply downloading the film was "so much easier than going out in the rain" and that the movie "exceeds expectations at every turn."

Duh! But, wait for it…wait for it!

“Wolverine” is a 20th Century Fox film. Fox News and 20th Century Fox are owned by Rupert Murdoch. Can you say dummy? Who writes about a leaked film from their OWN company?

Fox and Friedman reportedly "mutually agreed to part ways immediately."

20th Century Fox describes the film as a "stolen, incomplete and early version." They plan to prosecute the source of the leak (Hugh Jackman), if that person is ever found.
