Craig Newmark Responds To Joke About Fighting Tom Anderson In Funny People

Judd Apatow’s newest movie Funny People takes a few swipes at making fun of celebrities such as Megan Fox and Jon Favreau. But in an unexpected move, Funny People also target Craigslist founder Craig Newmark and MySpace co-founder Tom Anderson.

Funny People made $22 million in the opening weekend. The movie stars Adam Sandler, Seth Rogen, Leslie Mann, Jonah Hill, Eric Bana, and Jason Schwartzman. Last month, Jonah Hill discussed a fake Twitter account using his name on Letterman.
