Well, unlike news sources, the Onion is fiction, satirical at that. I suspect that Jim has no choice in this matter, for the sake of FR.
Frankly, I won't miss Onion postings. Too many folks have taken them seriously in the past, causing confusion in those threads.
No problem, Jim!

Not nearly enough, imo. ;^)

"Too many folks have taken them seriously in the past"I know China has a lot of people, but I would say that just because China took them seriously, that's too many.

I agree, the Onion articles are not news and not open to copying, no doubt about it. They aren't all that good anyway. Most of the ones that are posted here are very similar to things that are said on post every day. No big deal. We'll find other things to smile about.
