I wasn't following this until I saw the following video on Facebook. If you've missed the videos, check them out.

I've seen this, and honestly, I don't understand. The Onion has some excellent gems once in a while, but overall it's obvious, lame and lazy. I'm confused at the attention I've seen this get... But I mean, it's great publicity for them, so forge on.

I also don't think there's any category of the Pulitzer for which it would legitimately qualify, but I could be mistaken.

Jesus Christ, if Gaiman says it's war, we better goddamn believe him.

So it's like everyone else in the history of ever?

Hint, you get prizes for the gems you write, not for the % of gems vs other stuff.

I don't think they should get one. I'm just impressed with the press they've gotten.
