Check out this new satire website: http://www.texascockroach.com. It’s “LaCucaracha’s Only News Source Since 8000BC-(Give or Take a Millennium)” A “newspaper” from this mythical small Texas town, reporting news and events from the town’s perspective. It’ll make you laugh for sure!

I have a site called http://www.eveningbogstandard.com. The intention is to be our opinionatd and outrageous than mainstream site may be able to afford. I am currently writing the volume of content myself and updating all of it weekly. If I see potential I might want to involve other writers/illustrators designers. But I could maintain all the writing myself if I thought it was worth it and then only seek better design. Comments, ideas, thoughts, pitfalls, experiences shared would be appreciatedn from anybody and of course any mention anywhere to generate traffic

Irreverent Magazine is a good site but has any writer in the UK EVER found a way to ‘contact us’ and contribute material?..searching for it is impossible – like the bloody Da Vinci code but without the crap ending.

Funny though

Cool sits. But I can see one getting bored of them really quick. They must have a high bounce rate.

Interesting. When it comes to news with these websites, I’m sure that it’s bound to happen that similar headlines are made, but since in your case it was just a random story, it is indeed very fishy.

One would think they’d be the best with over 20 writers and several editors but we get unsolicited comments almost every week comparing our material more favorably. Sometimes on a timely topic it’s obvious they succumb to speed rather than quality. To get in the news cycle they pound a mediocre joke out there rather than waiting a couple days for better ideas. Also we believe the onion unintentionally ripped us off in one case….we wrote, “Christian rock band leaves hotel room immaculate.” a few months later they wrote, “Christian rock band cleans up hotel room.” We called them and they were very respectable about it but they didn’t completely admit the piece was plagiarized. They said a trusted freelance writer submitted the piece. Since they at least checked into it and were very cordial, we chalked it up to coincidence although it was very questionable.

The sad thing is that people often take the news on these sites seriously. Also, the Onion is the best, for newspaper style faux news.
