I saw a recent article that’d be great for their first

Might as well call it Notheonion
Not He Onion? Or No The Onion?
“The Onion?”
“No. The Onion.”
Even in the current form it’s more substantial than the fox news.
Astronaut, gun, Astronaut
Most “real” news outlets too.
Reminds me of /r/animetitties from the Reddit days.
not as good as it used to be, still the best news sub on that shit site.
what was the story with that?
I don’t recall exactly but this is the gist that I remember from a /r/subredditdrama post I read over a year ago
“Real news” sub reddits let porn, nsfw content, onlyfans and whatnot on them because they were not actively or thoroughly moderated. Some users were upset,To emphasize their point started posting nsfw anime pictures.
Someone decided they had enough and broke off into their own sub reddit that has actual news and it was called /r/animetitties or something.
ah okay thanks for explaining. sounds like it might have also been similar to the r/trees and r/marijuanaenthusiasts thing.
Don’t forget the classic r/Superbowl. Greatest sub reddit scoop in the history of Reddit.
I think trees was just weed users got there first
TheOnion should buy Infowars.com and start posting real news.
And they did The Onion Buys Infowars
how tf…?
Mad Lads! Amazing!!
Info about wars only?
With attitude and public shaming!
Welcome to 2016.
. . . Wait
Harambe was keeping us from the brink of annihilation
Bowie.
And Prince. Two god aliens that kept reality sane.
He was this timeline’s Anchor Being. Now we’re doomed.
There was a chance to not go this way!
They should have a section “not the onion”
While I like this I fear it’s too costly. Good journalism is pricey. And good comedy is pricey. I don’t know how well those two fields overlap. But I know I’ve seen good combos with Jon Stewart and Jon Oliver. So it’s for sure a possibility. I’d pay the onion for real news tbh.
Maybe it can only done by Jon’s.
Both have a place and they both as important as the other
They really could start publishing real news stories and no one would know the difference
Since people are saying that reality is becoming ridiculous, there should be a newspaper that says believable fake things like “people are treating climate change seriously” or “everyone is wearing masks and quarantining after covid-19 pandemic”
“Republicans voters appalled lawmakers wants to hurt immigrants more than help American families”
“Elon Musk announces he is joining Bill Gates and many other billionaires in pledging to give away 90% of their wealth in their lifetimes”
“McDonald’s joins a growing movement among companies to prioritize employee happiness and wellness as a means to increase productivity”
“Citizens in both Russia and the United States are calling Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump’s upcoming golf fundraiser World War III”
I feel like a news site from an alternative timeline where people aren’t dicks to each other would be amazing!
We really do live in the shittiest timeline if “normal” news seems so fake now
They did have a look at the major news outlets and the daily show a while back so.
There should be a game that lets people guess if a news story is an Onion article or not.
They kinda did, but it was an accident.
They could call it the nonion
“This is nonion your business!”
If they did, and no one could tell the difference.
The onion is a whore in DNC stable just like Babylon bee is a zionist who’re pandering to “conservatives”
Why are peasants givng second chances to regime whores?
Is this RFK with his whole brain worms thing
I haven’t noticed that, can you think of any examples that demonstrate your point?
Check their headlines prior to election, let me know what you think
