by "Was the following printed in an actual newspaper or in The Onion? “Expected to suffer the most if Fairfax County approves a $3.4 million budget cut proposed for its public libraries are children, non-English speaking immigrants, seniors and the disabled.”

Conservatives joke that if the planet was about to explode, The New York Times headline would read, “World to End; Women, Minorities Will Suffer Most.” (USA Today would purportedly go for, “We’re Outta Here.”)"
"Yet as the above example highlights, it’s getting harder to determine what’s real and what’s parody, especially with the (continuing) debate over health care reform."
