Welcome
We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!
The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Please also avoid duplicates.
Comments and post content must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, ableist, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!

MODERATORS
The article itself is satirical, but it's reporting on a real event
that The Onion has just reached an agreement to buy InfoWars. It's maybe marginal for the community, but this is basically the only time that one gets to have a single article on both The Onion and Not The Onion
the initial attempt some time back, which fell through, made it to both
so I couldn't resist.
EDIT: For good measure, link to NPR's coverage.
Truly a Schrodinger's Onion article.
Thank you, I was super confused because I had zero context lol
