Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Please also avoid duplicates.

Comments and post content must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

I thought this was going to be about cable TV being unwatchable due to ads. Instead it's some old guy bitching about people having choices and sharing passwords.

These dinosaurs are used to cable tv, where the ratio of ads and mediocre content is 50/50. If anything, they think there should be more ads.
