Bert
Bert is a Muppet character on the Public Broadcasting Service's long-running children's television show, Sesame Street. He and his friend and roommate Ernie form a comic duo that is one of the program's centerpieces, with Bert acting the world-weary foil to Ernie's naïve trouble-maker. A characteristic physical feature of Bert is his monobrow.
Bert in culture
A humor website "Bert is Evil" hosted digitally manipulated images and satiric articles as "evidence" of Bert being evil. The site depicted the Muppet consorting with Adolf Hitler, Osama bin Laden, and the KKK. It drew worldwide attention in 2001 when a photo of a Bangladeshi street protest was distributed by the Reuters news agency; the photo included a protest sign that depicted Bert with Osama bin Laden. The website owner then took down the site, but mirror sites still exist.
