Look, I’ve unsubscribed and resubscribe to the NYT a dozen times in the last few years.
I, too, have been a target of the “ if you had any ethics you would quit” ire when I worked at Deadspin. But journalism jobs are few and far between these days, and there are very few “good” media owners.

You're not very principled if you're working for the NYT at this point. Or at least, it's the wrong damn principles.

A very big Onion announcement:
The Onion has spent the last two months working on a masterpiece.
It's a documentary titled Jeffrey Epstein: Bad Pedophile.
It's so good, in fact, we were set to release it in theatres nationwide on October 2nd.
Then two weeks ago, Charlie Kirk was shot.

Incredible to hear. I’ll say it’s less surprising to someone intimately aware of all the previous constraints but still very validating. Long live The Onion.
It isn't a surprise to me that returning to print has made the Onion significantly funnier, but it is a surprise to me how *quickly* it has done so.

We are planning on making it a very funny, very stupid website.
We have retained the services of some Onion and Clickhole Hall of Famers to pull this off.
