I'll be looking into it -- if it is copyright infringement I believe this is fair use (parody, non-profit, academic, etc.). If it isn't fair use than this is actually a really interesting part of copyright law (e.g. using a premium font will make it more difficult for others to perform satire on your work).

I'm not a lawyer but I think it only would be parody if you were parodying the font itself. As the onion guys said, they had to license it.
It is totally possible! Anyway, fonts have been removed in the name of being on the safe side.
