The AP will be here all night, ladies and gentlemen

My sister pointed me to this AP article in the NYT, which is just a bunch of Yugo jokes. As she says: "WTF? Why was that in the NYT????"

EDIT: Possible explanation, again from my sister: "Have since found a separate article explaining that Yugos are not going to be made anymore. Maybe it was supposed to be a little sidebar to run with that article in print, and it wasn't supposed to get picked up on it's own. That's what my editor brain thinks." I think that's right.

I heard two of these at the end of Marketplace today, also in relation to the Yugo plant shutting down. When did this become its own category of jokes?
