The Onion is known for its fun light-hearted stories based on the issues facing the nation. These ridiculous stories are in no imaginable way believable news. For instance, the story headlined "Trump Holds Diplomatic Ceremony To Formally Welcome Coronavirus To United States" personifies the virus that is currently sweeping through parts of the world. The article has what can only be presumed to be false quotes like, "' We have a full itinerary planned over the next few days'" and "' lead to further diplomatic relations with H1N1, SARS, and other prominent global viruses.'" The article then ends with a joke saying that "the coronavirus had expressed an interest in touring the CDC director’s lungs."
