Totally hilarious. I can’t get over how much funnier their videos are than their (recent) print work.

I finally added The Onion to my bookmarks.

They really earned it with this one.

This perfectly captions the role of the MSM as the foolish, conclusion jumping buffoons that they are.

Yes and we watch anyway. The fun is in digging through the conclusion jumping and bias to decipher what really happened.

It took me a while to realize it was a spoof. That’s exactly how they report.

The death toll right now is 0, but that number could multiply any moment!

Not necessarily that original, as The Chaser used to have CNNNN a few years ago

That being said, the fact that they’re no longer doing CNNN makes this a rather good replacement. I’ve liked what I’ve seen thus far, anyway

This is so close to the real CNN that’s it’s hardly a lampoon.

What?!! You mean this wasn’t real? I am sure that I caught this story on CNN just last … or maybe it was another story … or two … or twelve… sure did look like this (as I was changing channels.)

Did ja catch the ticker “International Grocer’s Association convenes to set 2007 ham prices”. I smell riots, or is that bacon.

It would be funny if it weren’t so true.

I go to church with people who have e-mailed Onion stories around, warning the faithful against some faux boogeyman. The Onion is a scream. Good link, AP.
