Apparently not everyone realizes that a video circulating on the Internet that says a child has bankrupted the Make-a-Wish Foundation by asking for unlimited wishes is a spoof.

As Don’t Tell the Donor reports, the satirical Onion News Network produced the video of a fictional news program reporting that an 8-year-old Boston boy had taken advantage of a “bureaucratic loophole” to make his demands.

They included nine trips to Walt Disney World for himself and family of five, an F-14 Tomcat (which had to be decommissioned from Afghanistan), and daily hot dog lunches with the Yankee slugger Johnny Damon.

Don’t Tell the Donor’s anonymous blogger notes that the spoof has been so popular that it earned a spot on Snopes.com, a site that debunks Internet rumors.

The Make-a-Wish Foundation, in Phoenix, also posted a notice on its Web site stating that it is financially sound and does not grant “unlimited wishes.”

“The policy is clear,” it says. “We grant the one true wish of each eligible child with a life-threatening condition.”
