The fake news phenomenon is widespread and well known about. Most 'fake news' is there to influence a reader's mind to make decisions in their life based on false pretenses; a form of mind manipulation if you will. America's Finest News Sources is not like other 'fake news'. At The Onion, the news stories are so blatantly not real that it makes one wonder what the purposes of these stories are. Headlines like "Trump Holds Diplomatic Ceremony to Formally Welcome Coronavirus To United States" just are not believable and don't change a person's opinion on "Trump". These fake news stories are not meant to be informative, they are meant to be entertaining. In short, the purposes of these news stories are less news and more story.
