BREAKING NEWS – Greenville, South Carolina – The Michelin Corporation is now being accused of emotionally manipulating the Michelin Man into changing his religious beliefs for business purposes. Critics point to the fact that because China is now one of their biggest customers, they recently persuaded him to become a Buddhist. They also pointed to the fact, that about ten years ago when Mexico was one of their most lucrative clients, the Michelin converted to Catholicism and was often seen confessing his sins to a priest while wearing a sombrero.
