Here’s an informative and amusing interview with Onion head writer, Todd Hanson.
It provides some insight into how The Onion comes up with those
wacky, wacky stories. And don’t you want to write for The Onion?
“I guess pretty much everybody who works at The Onion, almost
everyone, is really unstable and apparently they need to process
their psychological instability through doing that sort of humour.
I don’t know whether someone who is completely mentally healthy
could do the same thing.” Amen!
