Posted Without Comment of the Day: Xi’an Up Close, an investigative program that airs in China, has become an international laughingstock after airing this report Saturday about a “mystery mushroom” that was discovered by villagers in a rural part of the city. (Subtitles are uploader’s translations.)

News channel Xi’an TV released this statement today:

An open letter to all netizens and viewers: Hi everyone, one of our news reports which aired last night has made everyone laugh. This incident has been widely followed, shared and commented on. As our reporter was still very young and unwise to the ways of the world, this report has brought great inconvenience to everyone. We’d like to take this opportunity to thank everyone from the bottom of our hearts for your criticism and correction. Please forgive our oversight!

(Not Safe For Work — mushroom is actually sex toy.)
