The Babylon Bee is making the Ministry of Propaganda look ridiculous and they don’t like that.

One think I know, it the writers over at The Bee are so good, they’re probably giddy with glee over this opportunity.

I can't believe you posted this. Everyone knows that the New York Times is a satire site, posing as a left-wing "newspaper". You're not supposed to take them seriously.

Decades of crap shared as “Real news” from the Onion and they Left thought it was great how they’d share “Christians oppose masturbation, calling it rape” type stories as fact on social media.

Apparently no one is allowed to mock the Left.

Despots

No wonder why the Babylon Bee created Not The Bee because some of the stories from the Left are Babylon Bee worthy but for REAL. 😏

They want Babylon Bee to make a satire on the NY Times to get some more clicks.

The headline itself sounds like it came from the Bee.

In case anyone missed it, the New York Times also wrote a story today about the New York Post newspaper.

The NY Times claims that the NY Post reporter who wrote the story about Hunter Biden’s emails refused to sign his name to the Post story because it had not been completely verified.

So, the NY Times has enough reporters to write a critical story about a Conservative newspaper, but they do not have enough reporters to go out and actually investigate the accuracy of the Hunter Biden emails!

The NYT is appealing to the same idiots who get their news only through “The Daily Show”. That’s real news to leftists.

To see how utterly foolish the Times is by hitting at the Bee, let us reverse the scenario.

The Onion is left of center, but nobody would mistake it as ‘misinformation’. Nobody could possibly miss that all they do is satire.

So let us say that the Washington Times went after them for daring to satire. They’d be roundly ridiculed by the left.

The New York Times is a parody of a news organization, and they are joyless at that.

The NYTs doesn’t want amateurs playing around with misinformation, they should leave it to the professionals of the MSM. What this country needs is a good gulag.

From the Babylon Bee iteself.

What is The Babylon Bee?

The Babylon Bee is the world’s best satire site, totally inerrant in all its truth claims. We write satire about Christian stuff, political stuff, and everyday life.

The Babylon Bee was created ex nihilo on the eighth day of the creation week, exactly 6,000 years ago. We have been the premier news source through every major world event, from the Tower of Babel and the Exodus to the Reformation and the War of 1812. We focus on just the facts, leaving spin and bias to other news sites like CNN and Fox News.

If you would like to complain about something on our site, take it up with God.

Unlike other satire sites, everything we post is 100% verified by Snopes.com.

Instead of their own reporter they should have quoted their anonymous sources close to the investigation.
