A caveat: I have never read or seen "The Onion". However, I have read an article, not knowing it was written by them and believed what I read. I did it today and learned nothing in it was true or accurate only when two people emailed to say so. Thank heavens they did and I was able to correct myself.
Given that experience, I conclude that the purpose for being of "The Onion" is to deceive the reader.
Yet, it seems to be widely read. Since I can find nothing honorable in deceit, I do wonder why.
Wrap...
