News of the News

Written by David Gerard. I have a large pile of these things I did for Uncyclopedia UnNews as well.

I write this stuff by seeing what’s on Google News or the BBC that day that starts an idea (or drives me into telly-smashing RAAAAGE). Scribble something in a text editor (usually Google Docs), find a suitable picture on Wikimedia Commons or Flickr (paying due attention to licensing), or get a famous image and claim fair use for parody, and manipulate it in the GIMP (usually InGIMP, to be precise), then queue it for the next morning. (Though of late I’m insanely busy at work and have an attention-demanding toddler at home, so skip days a bit often.)

If you like a story, please do tell your friends, send the link around, click “I like it!” in StumbleUpon, etc.!

Don’t forget to get the daily alert email as well.
