Aprašymas
The real truth behind the original fake news with this in-depth history of beloved humor publication, The Onion.In 1988, a band of University of Wisconsin-Madison undergrads set out to publish a free weekly newspaper with no editorial stance other than "You Are Dumb," and-over the course of twenty years-changed the way we consume both our comedy and our news. The Onion served as a hilarious and brutally perceptive satire of the absurdity and horrors of late twentieth century American life and grew into a global phenomenon. Now, for the first time, the full history of the publication is told by one of its original staffers, author and historian Christine Wenc. Wenc charts The Onion's rise, its position as one of the first online humor sites on the internet, and the way it influenced television programs like The Daily Show and The Colbert Report through dozens of interviews. Funny Because It's True peels back the layers to reveal how a group of young misfits from flyover country unintentionally created a cultural phenomenon.
