    Imagine being the editor who felt it was a good use of resources to assign a fact-checker to a satirical article claiming that Ruth Bader Ginsburg HAD BEEN RAISED FROM THE DEAD by court order.https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2020/09/27/fact-check-only-satire-could-9th-circuit-overturn-ginsburgs-death/3548008001/ …

        That is an admission that you either have too many reporters working for you or that you have the world's worst news judgment and should never work as an editor of anything ever again.

        It is not even possible to satirize modern "journalism." This sort of hackery would have been too much to include in Idiocracy. There's a reason people look at DONALD TRUMP and say, "hey, I'd rather trust that guy than the newspaper."

        I hope they do satire on that fact checking article so that maybe USA Today will fact check that too.

        Like, should somebody go over to USA Today and check to see if they’re doing okay? https://bit.ly/3cFmMs5 pic.twitter.com/RMtP4eujC3

        Wonderful advertising to a whole new segment that probably didn't previously know about The Bee. @TheBabylonBee is a National Treasure, and USA Today should know that.
