‘The Onion’ had the opportunity to do the funniest thing ever … so they did.

If she said she smiled, Momma, she smiled.

Here’s A BUNCH OF TV News

Eric Kripke doesn’t want The Boys to become the thing that they have been satirizing all this time — Yet, here we are with four spinoffs and counting.

TV Gods: make this happen:

If you were ever curious what the partners of the hosts of The View look like, it’s your lucky day.

Disney+ is about to add ESPN content to the site — and some live sporting events will be available, even if you’re not an ESPN+ subscriber.

Amazon and PBS have reached a deal to bring 150 local stations, PBS Kids, and two new FAST channels to Prime Video.

Netflix is being sued for allegedly ripping off the script of Rez Ball.

Whoopi Goldberg is claiming a bakery discriminated against her for her political beliefs, but the bakery is like, “We had no idea Whoopi had placed the order, leave us out of it, THANKS.”

The Onion bought Alex Jones’ Infowars at auction, lock, stock, and barrel — the website, the studio, even the snake oil vitamins and supplements — and I could not be more delighted. The new Infowars site will become a parody of itself and attack the “weird internet personalities” who fed the original site.

Hi everyone.The Onion, with the help of the Sandy Hook families, has purchased InfoWars.We are planning on making it a very funny, very stupid website.We have retained the services of some Onion and Clickhole Hall of Famers to pull this off.I can't wait to show you what we have cooked up.

Also, part of the reason we did bought InfoWars is because people on Bluesky told us it would be funny to buy InfoWars. And those people were right. This is the funniest thing that has ever happened.

EVEN BETTER: Apparently, Jones had been working with Roger Stone and others to purchase the site, but they didn’t make the best offer. Jones is obviously calling the whole thing rigged. LOL, die broke, asshole.

Former President Inject Bleach-Elect has nominated RFK Jr. to be the Director of Health and Human Services. In case you’ve missed it: RFK Jr. is a former heroin addict who himself claims to have suffered neurological damage from a worm that ate part of his brain. He does not believe in the efficacy of vaccines, he does not believe in the fluoridation of water supplies, he does not believe in pasteurizing milk. And in 2019, he contributed to a vaccine panic in Somoa that led to over 70 people dying from measles. Just think of all the great things he will do for the health of this country!

I hear it’s coming down to a three-way fight over who should be Surgeon General: Dr. Phil, Dr. Oz, and Dr. Ben Carson. (The best part is you don’t even know if I’m joking or not.)

Jake Tapper reacts to Trump picking RFK Jr. to lead the HHS:“Well, America – I hope you like Measles”
