“Funny Because It’s True” – New book reveals the beginnings of The Onion | The Excerpt
If you haven’t heard of The Onion, a satirical news publication, you’ve no doubt come across the many memes and parodies inspired by its style. The Onion began with a group of scrappy Gen-Xer’s who wanted to poke fun at mainstream news. It’s evolved into an at times biting, oftentimes comic, cultural critic.

Author Christine Wenc, a member of The Onion’s original staff, joins Dana Taylor on the Excerpt to discuss her new book “Funny Because It’s True,” which is on bookshelves now.
