04/14/2004: "America's Finest News Source!"

Regular readers of The Onion will love this Wired News story about The Onion titled "Onion Taken Seriously, Film at 11." It just kills me to see how stupid people will believe anything they read and not even consider that it might be satire. As the story says, even MSNBC reporter Deborah Norville isn't immune. I especially love the quote from the editor at The Onion, Carol Kolb, about all of the email they receive from the stupid people who read but don't get the jokes. "We don't respond to anyone, really, ever," she says. "We just laugh and laugh and laugh."
