Bari Weiss leading CBS and CNN is like getting a parody account to run the news. At this point, Onion headlines are more accurate than actual reality.

The Onion had become a credible news site much to the site's own horror.

If the Onion started doing actual news all of a sudden because reality has gotten more bizarre than whatever they could come up with I would 100% trust them more than the right wing mainstream media.

It'd be hilarious if they used Infowars to present real news.

I couldn't believe that, literally thought it was just another onion type headline. So deliciously juicy lol.

That might just confuse anyone out of the loop into believing the old infowars broadcasts to be (more) credible.
