If you aren’t familiar with The Onion News Network, it’s a spoof news agency. That’s the very short version. They started out as a weekly, subscription based newspaper that could be delivered to your mailbox for a small fee. Once the internet came into its own, you could log into their site for the articles. Now, you get full videos and an actual news desk.
Typically, their articles are very witty and sharp. If you don’t know what’s really going on in the world today, you aren’t likely to get the jokes in their mocking stories.
Of course, sometimes their articles can be more believable than the real news! Looking over at CNN’s Technology section, you’d think you had gone to The Onion’s site instead:
