Hey, I get all my news from comedians. They tell it like it is.

Ah, yes, The Onion, the original alt news source. Of course when they started the Onion back in the 80s, 90% of the populace knew it was satire, you know BS. Now 90% of Dump supporters think all Alt Right news is the word of God and mindlessly believe.

Most of the dirt balls that voted for evil Trump believed the fake Russian news they saw on Facebook.

I get all my news waiting in the supermarket checkout line

Snopes tracked down the “three million illegal votes” thing. It all came from a guy tweeting an inaccurate version of the results of a study. Yes! The source is “some guy on the internet.”

.

But of course, it’s the intelligence agencies that are making stuff up for the Democrats. “True the Vote” says so, and they’re guys on the internet.

Nonetheless, I am of the opinion that there is no such thing as “real” news. It’s all about ratings and power.

.

The media seldom lie and rarely tell the truth.

The Onion never claimed to be legitimate news. They’ve always been clear that they are satire.

An Onion flashback: “Meet the man inside the Nicholas Cage costume.”

The Onion has never pretended to be real news, but that never stopped real conservatives from getting up in arms over fake news stories. The one they did about a sort of theme park for abortion really got some of them incensed.
