In a time of chimpanzees, I was a penguin.
The religious right is motivated by the suspicion that someone, somewhere,
is having fun -- and that this must be stopped.

Ground rules: Comments that consist solely of insults, fact-free talking points, are off-topic, or simply spam the same argument over and over will be deleted. The penguin is the only one allowed to be an ass here. All viewpoints, however, are welcomed, even if I disagree vehemently with you.
WARNING: You are entitled to create your own arguments, but you are NOT entitled to create your own facts. If you spew scientific denialism, or insist that the sky is purple, or otherwise insist that your made-up universe of pink unicorns and cotton candy trees is "real", well -- expect the banhammer.

The Daily Show and the Onion.
ReplyDeleteThe Daily Show. The Onion is brilliant, but I don't always get there. I never miss the Daily Show.
ReplyDeleteYou know, it occurred to me that the Daily Show is really not so fake. At least compared to Fox. Or how about the Judith Miller era NY Times. That was a great source of fake news. The Onion purports to be fake, but who can forget their "..the national nightmare of peace and prosperity is over" article? Maybe they're not so much fake, but future news.
ReplyDeleteI'm going to go check and see if they're posting any future lottery numbers.
Fox News. Okay, where's the real poll?
ReplyDeleteSNL - I don't get TDS or FOX. Sometimes, I check in on the Onion.
ReplyDeleteThe Daily Show, and the Colbert Report! Both are worthy.
