Aw. I think The Onion is on the "Clinton can do no wrong" train now as well.

@mrmattimation "Univision bought a 40 percent controlling interest in the company, and also acquired the option to buy the remainder of The Onion in the future.
Haim Saban, Hillary Clinton’s biggest fan and financial supporter, is Univision’s co-owner and chairman. Saban and his wife, Cheryl, are Hillary Clinton’s top financial backers, having given $2,046,600 to support her political campaigns and at least $10 million more to the Clinton Foundation, on whose board Cheryl Saban sits." -
@rw 1) Univision still only owns 40% of The Onion, their future intentions aren't relevant to right now
2) Saban's company is one of, like, five others to own a stake in Univision
3) >Copy-pasting news articles without using it to articulate some sort of point and then not even sourcing it -
@mrmattimation The point was to say that the "Hillary can do no wrong" articles are implied do to corporate interests, Matt
