I enjoy the "In the News" thread as a way of keeping up with current events. But as we've seen, some of the "news" stories posted there have turned out to be fake. Now, don't get me wrong, I enjoy a good laugh as much as the next person, but I don't want to have to check the internet every time I read one of these stories to see if it's real or not. If you post a news story in that thread, you should be the one doing the checking, IMHO.

So, as a way of keeping the other thread free for real news stories (and there are plenty of those we can post), I propose we use this thread for the fake news stories instead. Sources can be The Onion, The Daily Currant, and, unfortunately, legitimate news outlets.

Let 'er rip! :rofl:
 
Fake reaction to a fake news story, yet, like most stuff from The Onion, pretty accurate:
