If you're fast enough you can claim the first post with a placeholder, and then just come back and edit it later once you've thought of something funny.
[QUOTE=Tetracycline;26319482]Well the Onion doesn't mention its articles are a joke, and neither does Fox[/QUOTE]
While I know what you are trying to say, in all fairness the Onion does say it's a satirical website over in it's [url=http://www.theonion.com/faq/]FAQ[/url]:
[quote]The Onion is a satirical weekly publication published 52 times a year on Thursdays. The Onion is published by Onion, Inc.[/quote]
They didn't mention it because anyone too dumb to know the onion is a joke news site probably can't read anyway.

no no i got 6 funnies i got this
I go to The Onion for my news and Fox for my comedy.
Someone needs to send this to another new's company so fox can have just a little more shit on its plate.

The Onions articles are true. If you do not believe me, prove me wrong.
:foxnews: Breaking news! According to a 12 year-olds Twitter page, Obama is conspiring with pre-soviet communists and the Taliban to hurt defenseless CEOs while causing the malnourished Middle Class to heal. Socialism? I DO THINK SO. :foxnews:
(Yeah, I overdid it, but Fox reporters get paid to do the exact same thing.)

The onion is satire. Fox is biased.

Oh you.
You may be my favorite mod but you can be silly at times.

no, I'd say it's pretty creative.
You guys think that's bad?

The problem I have is that people saw it and they didn't post a retraction they just tried to cover it up.
Every news site makes mistakes, but only fox tries to pretend it never happened.
404? What's wrong Fox News, it's not like that article is any bigger of a joke than all your other ones.
Somebody send this to Jon Stewart.

obamanation? creative?
where have you been the past 3 years
[QUOTE=Habsburg;26319353]oh :foxnews: you so crazy[/QUOTE]
Honestly, for a long time [I]I[/I] didn't know the Onion was fake. It's a very convincing fake, too.
Still shouldn't have happened, though.
This is one step worse than the news articles using facts off wikipedia pages which have been edited.
