You think? The next story didn't suggest anything to you regarding the seriousness of the site? Or the name - ONION News Network ?

Will say it was in quite bad taste, though!

I gather you were being sarcastic, though?

Just when the world seems gone, it's stories like this that make me proud.

So much of it is bad taste, partly why it is good. :P

I quite like the Franz Kafka airport, though I have to admit that I didn't get it for about half a minute until I saw the writing as she was pronouncing his name differently from how I had always assumed it was said.

And? It's not like it's a real story. Don't they have black humour where you come from?

That's why I love these "stories" so much, because so many people completely miss the point of the joke. It had generally nothing to do with the bear attack and more to do with a black man being convicted of a ridiculous crime just because he was in the area. I find that these stories act almost as an IQ test based on the responses by some.

That thought never even entered my mind. But then I'm not constantly looking for events where black people have been hard done by.

What? That's the whole point of the joke....

At the end she says "The Case will be re-opened and we will find the black man who did this...."
