A new step toward the future of mankind was taken this week following another successful launch from SpaceX. As with other major news stories, it can be interesting and informative to see how it was covered by different media outlets.

Fascinating! Future launches are scheduled to be streamed live on X after all other news outlets become obsolete and wither away like dust in the wind.
I laughed hardest at the Bee’s self-deprecating humor with the “Not the Bee” line. LOL
Those are hilarious and brilliant! What writers at the Bee!
Perhaps 6 more StarShip launches this year - so there will be more slanderous headlines for the MSN to make up.
ROFL!
My favorites are MSNBC and TMZ.
Gateway Pundit: BREAKING!!! MIC DROP!!! Elon Musk launches space rocket BOOM!!!!!!!!!!!!
LOL! :-)
Now that Musk is no longer backing the RATS, its open season.
Atlantic: How Musk’s launches cause climate change.
;-)
Now that's just mean. ROFL!
BOMBSHELL !!!
Those really aren’t that far off...
Headline for MSN is that the rocket disintegrated.
Makes it sound like a complete failure to the headline skimmer... completely over 95% of the test objectives, and a few on the “let’s see if it works” list.. it was an unqualified success.
And they're Fun to Read!
Yes it was! They made definite progress over the last attempt, actually making it to orbit. Their first attempts at landing the Falcon 9 boosters weren’t successful, they worked out the problems and got it right, and consistently.
True. But it's owned by the Babylon Bee. So this satirical article did a little poking fun at themselves while poking fun at others.
This just in.
As part of an effort to preserve the balance of nature, Congress declared HAMAS an endangered species, with stiff penalties to be levied against against any individuals or parties thereof disturbing their traditional habitat (above ground or subterranean), and or hindering their natural activity. The Act was passed by a Democrat majority along with some fiscal conservatives.
Meanwhile, the provisional government of Haiti has just declared war on Israel. According to sources, the action was taken in hopes of obtaining more US aid, including a floating harbor.
I think you have a career opportunity with the Bee. :-)
