It's supposed to be funny (and obvious, although apparently not for everyone). The entire site is a parody of "real news".
Jesus I can't believe we're discussing this! You saw a title that said "Corporation Reaches Goal, Shuts Down" with a mission accomplished sign and you didn't realize that it was a joke!?!?
I still seem to be missing the 'joke' part in all this, why does a site like that even exist if its all parody, 'The Onion, America's finest news source' my ass
