 LIST OF SATIRICAL SITES IN US
 THE ONION (THEONION.COM)
is an American digital media company and newspaper organization that publishes satirical articles on
international, national, and local news. The company is based in Chicago but originated as a weekly print
publication on August 29, 1988 in Madison, Wisconsin. The Onion began publishing online in early 1996.

 CLICKHOLE (CLICKHOLE.COM)
is a satirical website that parodies clickbait websites such as BuzzFeed and Upworthy. It was launched on
June 12, 2014, in conjunction with The Onion's decision to stop its print edition and shift its focus exclusively
to the internet.

 CHRIST WIRE GLOBAL MEDIA (CHRISTWIREORG)

is a satire of Christian fundamentalism that presents itself as a jaw-dropping compilation of some of the most
batshit crazy homophobia, racism, paranoia, and outright fawning over anybody who extolls both right-wing
politics and Christian fundamentalism
 HOW TO IDENTIFY GOOD SOURCE FROM
SATIRICAL SOURCE
1. Check the domain name
Look at the three letters at the end of the site’s domain name, such as “edu” (educational), “gov” (government), “org”
(nonprofit), and “com” (commercial). Generally, .edu and .gov websites are credible, but beware of sites that use
these suffixes in an attempt to mislead. Nonprofit websites may also contain reliable information, but take some time
to consider the organization’s purpose and agenda to determine if it could be biased. Commercial websites, such as
those of reputable news organizations, can also be good sources, but do some investigation to look for signs of
reliability.

2. Take a closer look at the source

Does the article or study have any authors listed? If so, do they cite or link to authoritative sources, or are they
writing their own opinions without backing these up with facts? Are their credentials listed?

Additionally, check the date of publication. In some cases, it may not matter if the source is older or hasn’t been
recently updated, but in fields of study where information can rapidly change, the data may be obsolete.

 3. Search for additional information to back up what you’ve found
As you find information, try to verify its authenticity and legitimacy using other reliable sites. If you find
another credible site that contradicts your original source, further research may be required.

4. Use certain sources only to jump-start additional research

Wikipedia
Wikipedia offers a large volume of information, but because its entries are created in a collaborative effort
involving many different users, its reliability can vary widely. In some cases, users deliberately place
incorrect information on the site; in others, well-meaning users unintentionally introduce inaccuracies. For
these reasons, you can use Wikipedia as a jumping-off point to spark more research, but not as a source on
its own.

Individual blogs, online forums, chat rooms, etc.

Much like Wikipedia, sources such as individuals’ blogs, online forums and chat rooms can be used to fuel
further research, but shouldn’t be relied upon as sources of dependable information.
