The Onion has been sold to Global Tetrahedron, a company connected to Lawson — and a long-running Onion gag.

      It’s real, and it’s the best news I’ve read in a while!

      Ben Collins

      NEWS: My friends and I now own and run The Onion. I’ll be the CEO.

      We’re keeping the entire staff, bringing back The Onion News Network, and share the wealth with staff.

      Basically, we’re going to let them do whatever they want. Get excited.

      I definitely had to check the date it was posted as the whole article is quite odd.
