Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

Imagine saying this to someone who works at NASA.

The moon landing was fake. Unlike all the blonde hairs of the fox hosts. These are all totally naturally blonde and wavy.

"Totally, tremendously real. Trust me, I know real. I can, 100%, totally confirm that her hair—like my tremendously great hair—is real. No doubts. Everyone else saying it's fake—they're fake. Fake news. Don't believe what the Democrats are saying. It's Hillary's fault. With all this AI, nobody can tell. They think it's fake. They think everything is fake. I'll tell you. Her hair, my hair. It's real. All real. True American hair. Didn't even need a hair dresser. Just wake up with great hair. All day. Every day."

The lowest paid federal worker is still more important than any Fox shill

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Why would a worker that is paid less be less important?

Every federal employee I know could easily triple their pay by going into private sector.

I anticipate we'll need to rehire them as contractors at triple the pay.

That's the plan and one of Trump's buddies will get their share for holding the company that organises it all.

AF vet here. Big govt personnel cutbacks followed by "Oh shit!" followed by hiring expensive contractors that do half the work is a tale as old as Uncle Sam.

...that said, I dunno if there will be an "Oh shit" moment this time around: Trump is acting on malice, not stupidity. Weakening the US is his goal.

I'll hold judgment either way until I see a law repealed but I share the same fear.

That's a bold statement coming from a actor on Fox news

[–] [email protected] 14 points 2 days ago

Agreed! Making sure I receive my Life-Saving Social Security Payment is a Job for Teenagers to get their Feet wet! REAL JOBS are the people yelling at me on the TV that I can EASILY survive without!

I think that comment works better the other way around.

Crazy that Village Idiot is one of the most coveted jobs in America.

...Says the talking sex doll masquerading as a reporter.

[–] [email protected] 29 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Must be a cheap model. Fox should spend a little more on their sex dolls.

I can’t put my finger on it but something about these people look like they’re wearing human skin. What polluted swamp did they crawl out of?

Does hosting a fake news show qualify as a real job?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 days ago

Got a sharpie, a map and large boobs? You could be a famous weatherman! Al Rocker has large boobs and a sharpie and a map. I rest my case.

[–] [email protected] 38 points 2 days ago

Unfortunately. And it's more unfortunate that so many people believe it.

Nah she just larping as a journalist

[–] [email protected] 18 points 2 days ago (1 children)

In Soviet Russia we just call that a propaganda officer.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 days ago

Same shit in the US to anyone that has two brain cells to rub together.
