CNN, an up-and-coming news site, has, it appears, stolen an article from long standing and reputable news satire site The Onion. Two men with goatees (actually circle beards) tell us about the article's appearance on CNN.
The article in question, which has obviously been stolen from The Onion by CNN, is nowhere to be found on The Onion's website, further evidence that CNN has actually stolen it.
"The article is obviously from The Onion", one Internet Relay Chat participant comments, "because it is in a similar tone to the other Onion articles: Almost believable at first, but as you delve further into it it just becomes ridiculous."
The commenter was later believed to have been acting on behalf of CNN and to have stolen the comment from the person who originally would have said it.
"dude i was gonna say that ur from msn [CNN] or sumfin lol?"
