That's sad. Especially these days— seems like satire is as important as ever.
For fans of the Onion, there's a rising Canadian counterpart. They started off kind of slowly, but have started to come into their own— especially with Ontario's recent election. They sometimes cover American events as well.

- charmides 8y agoWriting good satire is hard. The site you linked to has some good ideas once in a while, but they lack the consistent quality of The Onion.
- walrus01 8y agoThere is also the Burrard Street Journal. A lot of the satire will be lost on Americans who don't pay attention to Canadian local news/politics. https://www.burrardstreetjournal.com/ https://www.burrardstreetjournal.com/
