LA Entertainment Reporter Mistakes Samuel Jackson for Lawrence Fishburne
Jackson calls reporter "as crazy as the people on Twitter"
Samuel L. Jackson took a Los Angeles entertainment reporter to task Monday after the reporter appeared to confuse the actor for Laurence Fishburne.
"You're as crazy as the people on Twitter. I'm not Laurence Fishburne!" Jackson said during a live TV interview. "We don't all look alike. We may be all black and famous, but we all don't look alike. You're busted."

Hint, Sam is the one in the card commercials that looks like crap. Lawrence is the one with a permanent frown due to raising a heathen.
Basically this.
They both recently shilled in commercials, so it's easy to confuse them, but by all means, he should play the race card and keep shilling.
They actually do somewhat look alike.
Here's a story/quiz from 2006
