President Trump Declares The Babylon Bee His Most-Trusted News Source
The Babylon Bee ^ | July 19, 2018

WASHINGTON, D.C.—In the wake of his much-anticipated “Fake News Awards,” President Donald Trump confirmed Friday that while most news sources are “totally fake,” there is one that he trusts more than any other—The Babylon Bee.

His remarks came in response to a reporter asking if there’s any news source he trusts exclusively in light of his rampant mistrust of the media.

“Everyone knows I really like Fox & Friends, but look, The Babylon Bee is the absolute best. They’re tremendous—nobody else even comes close to the quality and truth in their reporting,” Trump told reporters. “I read the Bee every day because I always know that what I’m reading is 100% accurate.”

“Even when they hit me, which they do quite a bit, what can I say? I’ll take it. It’s all true,” he laughed.

The president admitted to refreshing the Bee’s homepage “sometimes hundreds” of times per day for the latest stories. “I’m just glad they don’t have a TV show yet—I’d never get anything done!”

Since “reporting” is really nothing more than lying, these days, why not choose humor?

Mine too!

It's incredible how close the Bee's satirical posts so closely match reality, and even predict future events!

Consistently the funniest stuff of the last several years. Wicked political satire - even ridiculing the excesses of conservatism- without vulgarity or profanity.

I figured some levity would be good about now.

Plus, I think most of us agree with the article.
