For the last few months or so, Fake Michael Bay has been a bit of a star on Twitter, putting up periodic, fairly entertaining updates about everything from explosions to Shia LaBeouf’s crying fits.  It looks like the fun’s over because today, according to ScreenJunkies, Fake Michael Bay received this letter.

It claims, among other things, “Your ‘Twittering’ postings are untrue and defamatory,”  and “[redacted] demands that your retraction and correction be accompanied by an editorial in which you specifically repudiated your libelous statements.”

It seems odd, because by now you’ve probably seen his Verizon commercial and figured Michael Bay had a pretty good sense of humor.  A common mistake.  It’s not that Michael Bay likes to make fun of himself, it’s that Michael Bay will make fun of himself for money.  He’s not so much a “good sport”, as a “giant whore”. Michael Bay and his lawyers regretfully apologize if they’ve cause you any confusion.
