The Onion got pantsed by the Bee long ago.

Quit being funny when they called the 9yo actress the “c” word

I thought the conclusion was pretty good:
quote:
The petition for certiorari should be granted, the rights of the people vindicated, and various historical wrongs remedied. The Onion would welcome any one of the three, particularly the first.

I know the OT has an appreciation for The Onion. Pretty funny stuff.
The Onion hasn't been funny since Nick Saban was at LSU.

Yeah thats the point
The Onion pretends its not doing the exact same thing in reverse
And for that they are not funny
Can't even have the balls to admit the obvious
"Transexuals with green hairs take over The Onion"
Thats real news

The Bee has its moments, but only Politard types think this.

I haven't been a fan of The Onion for a while, but this being filed as an amicus brief...
...is gold.

INTRODUCTION AND SUMMARY OF ARGUMENT
Americans can be put in jail for poking fun at the government? This was a surprise to America’s Finest News Source and an uncomfortable learning experience for its editorial team. Indeed, “Ohio Police Officers Arrest, Prosecute Man Who Made Fun of Them on Facebook” might sound like a headline ripped from the front pages of The Onion—albeit one that’s considerably less amusing because its subjects are real. So, when The Onion learned about the Sixth Circuit’s ruling in this case, it became justifiably concerned.
First, the obvious: The Onion’s business model was threatened. This was only the latest occasion on which the absurdity of actual events managed to eclipse what The Onion’s staff could make up. Much more of this, and the front page of The Onion would be indistinguishable from The New York Times.
...is gold.

Been reading legal briefs for over 30 years. This is easily in the Top 5.

Can you imagine The Onion publishing this classic today?
