Remember when the KKK announced that they would back then Presidential-nominee Barack Obama in order to avoid the election of Hillary Clinton? Sure you do! It was discussed on Reuters and The Times, albeit in opinion columns; and the ever-irrefutable Snoop Dogg mentioned it during an Guardian interview. Well, anyway . . . that story originated from The Daily Squib.…
Naha Daily's website is down (or no longer active). Should we still review them? Yes! Find out why, and if their site is satirical or no.
You can usually determine a site’s validity in about 5 seconds by looking at three things: disclaimers located at the footer of the front-/home-page (if you’re lucky and the site actually has one!); the number (and sometimes type) of ads on the site; images for the articles.

TMZ World News is likely banking on the familiarity of TMZ to add credibility (which for some is part of the joke in and of itself). But on their contact us page: Tmzworldnews.com is the most notorious satire website in the world with the most shocking Satire News to keep its visitors in a state of disbelief. In fact, TMZWorldNews.com…
Forward Progressives is a political website, and while, just like any news website, the truthiness factor is in the eye of the beholder, this website is real.

From their About page: "The Cedar Rapids Defender is an independent media watchdog owned and operated by the people who work for it." But . . . are they real?
As with comedy, timing is everything for “satire” and ClickBait sites. Take this article submitted for The Daily Snark: Jason Pierre-Paul Blows Off Other Hand After His Samsung Galaxy Note 7 Explodes. With Samsung’s ‘Exploding‘ Galaxy Note 7 recall in the news and being banned on all U.S. Flights, it’s very easy to believe something like this. Until, that is,…
Although not a news site, I figured I’d go ahead and throw our hat in the ring about Bitelabs.org. How many of you saw the movie “Antiviral”? The premise is this: In a dystopian, celebrity-obsessed near-future, Syd March is employed by the Lucas Clinic, a company which purchases viruses and other pathogens from celebrities who fall ill, in order to…
LiberalLogic101.com is Satire, using humor to counter left-wing talking points, such as this one: Undoubtedly these “liberal talking points” are taken out of context, which is a common conceit on both sides; otherwise, it wouldn’t be funny.
According to their About Page, the The Daily Meal was founded by a former CEO of Forbes.com, Jim Spanfeller. The site covers culinary topics with their articles, videos, and special reports.

Civic Tribune’s tagline is “Dedicated To The Truth”; however, they’ve at least twice referenced Wyoming Institute of Technology, which we’ve already discussed. As a reminder: There’s no such thing. Either they are satirical, or they are lazy. I’m willing to give them the benefit of the doubt.
From their website: Tech Times covers news on technological innovation and how business and technology intersects, influences and impacts different markets and industries to bring about cultural transformation in our lives, and how that is relevant in our increasingly interconnected world.
