The Onion is at risk. Once a reliable source for fake news, The Onion has in recent years been threatened by Fox. Most recently, they've been outed for repeating talking points fed to them by the White House. And The Onion has now twice been caught posting what, in hindsight, turned out to be real news. Its just too confusing.
In the latest fiasco, a Point-Counterpoint about Iraq from March 2003 has turned out to be 100% accurate. Be sure to read both the point and the counter-point.
What Onion story will next turn out to be true? Firefighters Turned Away From Exclusive Nightclub Blaze? Queen Elizabeth II Pregnant? New X-Files Movie Opens?
I guess when it comes to fake news, there is now only one sure source.
