Blawgletter's senior partner in Dallas, Terry Oxford, enjoys reading The Onion, which styles itself America's Finest News Source. He doesn't browse it for the news. Or for journalistic virtuosity. Not even for the editorials. No.
A couple of 2008 story headlines will give you a sense for what arouses Mr. Oxford's interest:
Factual Error Found on Internet
American Airlines Now Charging Fees to Non-Passengers
And:
Online Dating Helping Pathetic Women Get Their Hopes Crushed More Efficiently
Warning to young lawyers: "The Onion is not intended for readers under 18 years of age."
