Some of The Onion's articles have true headlines with silly bodies, like https://www.theonion.com/frontier-spirit-airlines-merge-to-c... and https://www.theonion.com/new-york-times-buys-online-game-wor...

It's kind of unfair when we get those headlines in the game.

Thanks for trying. You have a good point, those were true headlines but with satire text. Got to find a way to filter those out... Unfortunately they don't seem to belong to a fixed section which I can parse.
All of the ones I've seen have been under "American Voices". Can you filter on that?
Good suggestion will take a look. On first glance it doesn't appear in the url which is what I'm getting from the Reddit api. Will have to think of some other way.
Ah yeah, I got bit by that too! Haha
