Mountain Dew 0 Internet 1

Mountain Dew'€™s "€˜Dub the Dew"€™ Online Poll Goes Horribly Wrong "Hitler did nothing wrong,"€ "Diabeetus,"€ and "Gushing Granny"€ all topped the online rankings to name the new drink,
which Mountain Dew describes as "Classic Mtn Dew with green apple attitude."€ Other high ranking suggestions included "Soda"€ and "Sierra Mist,"€ but the online shenanigans did not stop there. In addition to simply bombarding the poll with hilariously unusable names, the pranksters even went so far as to hack into the site, adding a banner that read "Mtn Dew salutes the Israeli Mossad for demolishing 3 towers on 9/11!"€
