Not The Nation is very similar to another satirical "news" source that often cuts to the quick - The Onion, although The Onion takes a slap at topics worldwide.

Thanks, Bao Bao... I've never checked out that site before. My personal impression (as a non-American) is that TheOnion is mostly American-oriented. There is some international stuff. But I didn't really get most of the headlines instantly as I do when I look at NotTheNation.

Have to say, NotTheNation is very cleverly done. I've written some satire before and that stuff needs to come to you pretty quickly or it doesn't come at all.
