Onion or Real
Posted by Marcus on October 16, 2008
The Onion is a humor news paper and it does it’s job well. I read it and am consistently impressed. I write here and I try to string ideas together coherently, sometimes I do. I write for Fact Checked, and sometimes I’m funny, never as funny as the Onion, I don’t think.
But sometimes I find an article in a serious newspaper (note I didn’t say real) that feels like it would be at home in the Onion, or I would be proud to have thought of it an put it on Fact Checked. Politico delivered such a headline just today.
This will only make sense if you watched the last Presidential debate.
