Am I the only one completely exhausted with "satire" news? We have enough misinformation as it is, and now we know how dangerous it can be. It's not funny anymore.

When it's done well, it's great. I love The Onion. The problem is people writing stories that look like real news and then pretending that it's satire.

It’s one thing when the site is obviously satire but they’re clearly trying to appear as a real news site. It’s so unnecessary
