In a cynical attempt to tap into the lucrative Fathers' Day market, this August the group who brought you 'CNNNN' and 'The Chaser Decides' is releasing 50 Golden Years Of The Chaser- 2000-2005, rehashing all their shoddy articles from Chaser Annuals over the last five years. Recalling the important stories ('World Trade Centre Janitor Declares- Best Sickie Ever' and 'Bali trial mix-up- Vanessa Amorosi executed'); reminiscing over their old gift guides (including such favourites as Barry Jones' Diary); and looking back on Latham's pancreas and Beazley's ticker, 50 Golden Years of the Chaser makes for nostalgic reading for Uni students and immature middle-aged men the country over. The Chaser is now a nationally recognised and award-winning comedy group, which enjoys considerable publicity.

The Chaser

The Chaser is an Australian satirical comedy team. They are known for their television programmes on ABC-TV, including The Election Chaser, CNNNN, The Chaser's War on Everything and The Chaser's Media Circus.

They are famous for several high profile stunts over the years, including printing the personal phone number of then Prime Minister John Howard on the front cover of their newspaper, and dressing up as Osama bin Laden outside President George W. Bush's hotel during the 2007 APEC Summit in Sydney.

The team started as a satirical newspaper, a publication known to challenge conventions of taste. The Chaser's motto is “Striving for Mediocrity in a World of Excellence”.
