The Onion was recently bought, and the new CEO is a well-regarded former disinformation reporter. Literally a journalist who reported on fake news, is now running the world’s preeminent fake newspaper. Only the Onion could make that work. There have been some great interviews with the new CEO, he seems to really give a shit about the company.
To run Global Tetrahedron as CEO, Lawson hired Ben Collins, formerly senior reporter at NBC News covering “disinformation, extremism and the internet.”
“My friends and I now own and run The Onion. I’ll be the CEO,” Collins posted on X. “We’re keeping the entire staff, bringing back The Onion News Network, and sharing the wealth with staff. Basically, we’re going to let them do whatever they want. Get excited.”

They did something with The Onion News Network on YouTube recently? I’m being recommended 15 yo videos non stop on the past days.
Probably not, the youtube algorithm shits itself from time to time if it can’t pigeonhole you into some kind of niche that makes it money.
Its sent me into an Onion path too, the old burning money pit video…
I recently got recommended the spnys new piece of shit that does nothing video. It was still excellent.
