Non-copypasta source: https://x.com/canardenchaine/status/1828438807697408059 (When Zlatti_71 signs off with "Remylind23" and can't spell the name of the French newspaper they're attributing, doesn't that make you a bit suspicious? And Le Canard enchaîné is a satirical newspaper, so it's not inconceivable that the story is made-up.)

It has a sarcastic tone but it is one of the best newspaper for the sources. Other newspapers regularly cite them.

The question is whether that statement is a joke or not (they do both).

No, they don't do joke articles. It's not the Onion. That wouldn't be called satirical in France anyway.

It's satirical in the sense that it takes a mocking tone. It doesn't do parody.

Who said anything about articles only ?

For instance, this one is obviously a parody :

That's a political cartoon. How is it in any way relevant to the news published in the journal?
