Fake Onion story causes real confusion for California town

[gunslingingbird]

Here we go again.

A fake story published by The Onion is causing some real confusion for a California town and the institute that the humor paper satirized.

The Onion published a brief, one paragraph story on October 26 with the headline, "Study Finds Every Style of Parenting Produces Disturbed, Miserable Adults"

On the brought side, something newsworthy besides Charles Schultz has finally come out of Santa Rosa. Moving on...

I read this one today to and got such a kick out of it. Not really because some people thought a story from The Onion was real, but by how darkly clever and satirical the actual news story is. Cheers.
