Mathew's comments: News satire is harder than it looks

  • horatio salt · 2 years ago
    I'd say there are two things a news satire site needs to be: funny...and well-written. The writing on 23/6 is stiff, leaden and boring. If the writing were better, I wouldn't even care if it made me smile or not. At least I'd be entertained. I like to think my own news satire site is, if not 'funny', at least mildly diverting and maybe even clever. And I do hope it's well-written. But that, of course, is for others to judge...

    I agree it's not easy, and there are probably too many news-satire sites. Nevertheless, I'm giving it a shot. Check it out: http://newslampoon.com
