The only problem with #TheOnion #joke articles is that they used to be just plain funny. A good laugh. Nothing more
But nowadays they are prophetic, revelatory and dire insight into serious, grim problems in the world

The Onion can soon do the funniest thing: having a bigger circulation than WaPo, owned by billionaire Jeff Bezos.🖕
As for the Infowars IPR, things are clear:
“Business plans? Not really. Comedy and fuck-you plans? Definitely, yes.”🫠

The Onion’s Infowars Is Destroying What’s Left Of Alex Jones’ Reputation And Getting Sandy Hook Families Paid
-
And now for something completely different...
This is really happening... at the intersection of Alex Jones, Info Wars, MAGA crazy, The Onion, and frogs.
>The Onion’s InfoWars Site Is Selling Plushies That Are Turning the Frickin’ Frogs Gay
https://www.them.us/entertainment/infowars-gay-frog-plushies
> None of these words are in the Bible.
This sure does seem like an Onion sort of story... It's getting harder to tell, now!

The Onion’s ‘Infowars’ #Parody Is Here. #AlexJones Is Going to Hate It
The satirical site is fighting to officially take over #Infowars. In the meantime, CEO Ben Collins says the new show will mock “how fucking stupid” conspiratorial brain rot has become.

Alex Jones subjected the families of Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting victims to nearly a decade of extreme harassment and death threats by repeatedly promoting the false conspiracy theory that the 2012 massacre was an elaborate hoax and that the grieving parents were "crisis actors"

WBEZ: The Onion relaunches InfoWars, Alex Jones’ right-wing conspiracy website, this week. “Here’s something you absolutely can trust, barring some last-minute legal roadblock: the Chicago-based satirical newspaper, The Onion, is set to launch InfoWars on July 2, a year and seven months after it won the initial auction to take over the website founded by right-wing conspiracy theorist Alex […]

I've been thinking about what a cross between "The Onion" and "Quanta" would look like. It could be called "The Mustard Watch". Here are some possible article titles:

Finite geometry proves that universe began last Thursday

Trump Administration Attempts To Link Autism To Tylenol — #TheOnion
The Trump [regime] claimed that taking #acetaminophen during pregnancy might increase #autism risk, advising against the common over-the-counter drug despite its use by a majority of pregnant women. What do you think?
“I guess it’s back to laudanum.”

Weekly output: customer satisfaction scores, Qualcomm Quick Charge, TiVo OS, The Onion
This week started at home, then took me out of town first to New Orleans for the Online News Association’s conference (the ninth I’ve attended), followed by Los Angeles for Cranky Dorkfest (my overdue introduction to that avgeek meetup).
9/9/2025: This PC Maker Just Pushed Apple Out of the Top Spot for Customer Satisfaction, PCMag
I had more time than I thought I would Monday to write this when jury duty turned into a roughly 20-minute exercise–they seated the jury they needed right before my reporting time.
9/10/2025: Qualcomm Quick Charge Tech Gets Big Update. Will It Appear on Any US Phones?, PCMag
One of my editors asked if I could pick up this embargoed item, and I had enough slack time in my schedule Tuesday to make that happen.
9/12/2025: Xperi’s TiVo OS aims to bring search and simplicity to TV makers, Light Reading
After a show-floor interview at IFA that gave me about 95% of what I needed, it took a few more days for Xperi’s PR firm to confirm a couple of details, after which I wrote and filed the piece for my telecom trade-pub client during some downtime at ONA Thursday afternoon.
9/14/2025: The Onion CEO Unloads on AI’s Joke-Writing Skills, Says Infowars Purchase Still on the Table, PCMag
Having seen Ben Collins on a panel at SXSW 2019, I thought he would make an engaging, funny speaker at ONA. He was, but he also made some serious points about the Trump administration’s frequent hostility to dissent and the need for journalists to resist that pressure.

"As denizens of the Fourth Estate, we understand the grueling and brave work involved in ensuring ethical reportage, and for this reason, we at The Onion have come together, unintentionally leaving our keys in the office last night and frustratedly calling our building manager, who does not seem to be answering at this time."
