Faux News: 10 Best Websites for Fake News & Satire

Published on in

Let’s face it, folks, the news can be depressing. Sara covered for us the top 5 good news websites, an enchanting place where you don’t have to lock your doors at night and the world seems like a much better place.
Yup, there are plenty of positive events going on, but where would you go if you needed a break from what the mainstream media covers and just have a good laugh?
Enter the world of fake news and satire. It’s a place where fact checking isn’t needed and things like journalistic ethics and standards, objectivity, and values are simply discouraged.

The Onion

Of course, there’s The Onion. The popular Peabody Award-winning fake news organization does it best, with well-written articles and even its own astonishingly genuine-looking video broadcasts as the Onion News Network (have you seen Apple’s new MacBook Wheel?).
The Onion’s printed edition newspaper is sold in bookstores worldwide and is distributed to select U.S. cities.

Private Eye

Private Eye is kind of the British version of The Onion.
The satirical magazine’s website provides numerous columns, covers news from the U.K. and around the world, as well as fun stuff like crosswords and cartoons.

Indecision Forever

It’s all the fun of a regular political website, but with only half the insight.



Indecision Forever actually covers real political news, but with Comedy Central’s own twist to things. The “reduced-fact” website also offers clips from the network’s satirical programs The Daily Show with Jon Stewart and The Colbert Report.

NewsBiscuit

Offering the “news before it happens,” NewsBiscuit puts out Onion-quality articles on a regular basis, covering a broad range of topics.

The Spoof

Touted as “one of the leading satire newspapers on the Internet,” The Spoof provides daily news headlines on current world affairs, sports, science, and entertainment.
What separates the website’s content from others is that The Spoof relies solely on its readers to submit stories.

Sports Pickle

Sports Pickle is a humor, satire, and parody website covering the world of sports.
Sure, The Onion has its own very well done sports section, but Sports Pickle is updated more often and stays on top of all the latest news in the NFL, NBA, MLB, and more. Because of that, this website does it better when it comes to sports.

Unconfirmed Sources

Unconfirmed Sources publishes political satire and news story parodies regularly. The website’s disclaimer reads, “In case you didn’t get it, none of the stories are real. It’s all fake. We made it all up. It’s satire.”
“The people might be real, but the quotes are not. If it gets you mad, get a life.”

CAP News

Complete with a modified ABC News logo, CAP News covers, well, what you’d probably expect ABC to cover.
With U.S. and international news, the website also reports on politics, entertainment, business, health, and more.

The Enduring Vision

Bringing the world satire and love, The Enduring Vision is updated five nights a week with well-written content. The website is packed full of news, editorials, and great features, including “The Best of Spam” and “What Can YOU Do?”

DERF Magazine

DERF Magazine is based in Cincinnati, Ohio, but that doesn’t stop the publication from reporting on whatever is happening in the U.S. and worldwide.
From local content to stories on just about anything, DERF also includes pet orbituaries and lame horoscopes.

NewsMutiny

With satire for the wise and news for the dumb, NewsMutiny offers national and world news, as well as articles on opinion, local, entertainment, home and garden, advice, and a “Farts and Giggles” page with all kinds of crazy stuff.
Looking for more websites? HumorFeed is a news aggregator specifically for satire and humor. Even Google News is in on the act, displaying satirical publications with a “(satire)” tag among its news sources. Check out the latest stories here.
If you’ve got a favorite satire website, be sure to let us know in the comments!

Some of the best GAMES ever programmed are available on the Internet for FREE, even classic trend setters like Doom and Grand Theft Auto. If you’re willing to put up with pop-up ads, “nag-to-buy” screens and in some cases, registration, there are a host of free games awaiting your introduction.
We can’t tell you what games you should play … So … Instead of categorizing and rating our favorite games we’ll show you where you can go to find, select and download your own soon-to-be favorite games.
  1. For a nice variety of ten great games reviewed by Peter Butler you can go to The Best Free Games. Although the reviews are several years old, the games are still among the best and cnet is one of the safer sites for downloading games.
  2. Another cnet site for Free PC Games is Gratis Gaming: Real PC Games you can Download for Free. Here John P. Falcone reviews 11 of his favorites including Grand Theft Auto and Grand Theft Auto 2 (Yes, the originals are now free). If you like the free versions, and want more, John also gives you alternative games worth paying for.
  3. For a review of The Top Ten Free Games of 2007 go to Midnight Synergy. At the bottom of the review there are links for additional games released for free in 2007.
  4. For yet another opinion on the 10 best Free PC Games go to I-am-bored. [link removed - URL below - rebuild without spaces]  The list includes several award winning games including Return to Castle Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory and Prince of Persia: the Sands of Time.
    http://www.   i-am-bored.com/bored_link.   cfm?link_id=25055
  5. If Board games are your preference you should read about the Top 10 Free Board games at About.com.  Not only are the games explained, there are links to the complete rules for each game.
  6. For a bigger variety of free games including racing games, mario games, car games, action games, arcade games, puzzle games, sport games, shooting games and fighting games go to Free Best Game.  You have to register at this site, but the sheer volume may be worth it.
  7. To peruse the 10 Best Free Online Game Sites go to Digital Trends.  The site includes review guides for things like picture taking and Blu-ray disks, and links to related news.
  8. If you like physics, then u should vist http://www.phyfun.com/ . They have action physics games almost like angry birds .

Top 10 GPT Sites of 2011 - Best of the Best

Published on in

Introduction To GPT sites

Here I show you the best GPT sites ever known to man.

GPT sites are websites that pay you to do simple tasks such as: Searching the web, watching videos, playing games, browsing the web, and much much more. These sites make money by having hundreds and thousands of members like us to do tasks that advertisers pay them for us to do. The site then keeps a small portion of what you make and you get rewarded.

All sites below offer many different ways to cash out including: paypal, gift cards, and custom orders. I choose these sites because: 1. They are 100% free to join. 2. Who wouldn't want free cash and gift cards? 3. I've received at least one item or cash from each of them.

top 10 forex trading site

Published on in


The foreign exchange market (forex, FX, or currency market) is a global, worldwide decentralized financial market for trading currencies. Financial centers around the world function as anchors of trading between a wide range of different types of buyers and sellers around the clock, with the exception of weekends. The foreign exchange market determines the relative values of different currencies.[1]
The primary purpose of the foreign exchange is to assist international trade and investment, by allowing businesses to convert one currency to another currency. For example, it permits a US business to import British goods and pay Pound Sterling, even though the business' income is in US dollars. It also supports direct speculation in the value of currencies, and the carry trade, speculation on the change in interest rates in two currencies.[2]
In a typical foreign exchange transaction, a party purchases a quantity of one currency by paying a quantity of another currency. The modern foreign exchange market began forming during the 1970s after three decades of government restrictions on foreign exchange transactions (the Bretton Woods system of monetary management established the rules for commercial and financial relations among the world's major industrial states after World War II), when countries gradually switched to floating exchange rates from the previous exchange rate regime, which remained fixed as per the Bretton Woods system.
The foreign exchange market is unique because of
  • its huge trading volume representing the largest asset class in the world leading to high liquidity;
  • its geographical dispersion;
  • its continuous operation: 24 hours a day except weekends, i.e. trading from 20:15 GMT on Sunday until 22:00 GMT Friday;
  • the variety of factors that affect exchange rates;
  • the low margins of relative profit compared with other markets of fixed income; and
  • the use of leverage to enhance profit and loss margins and with respect to account size.
As such, it has been referred to as the market closest to the ideal of perfect competition, notwithstanding currency intervention by central banks. According to the Bank for International Settlements,[3] as of April 2010, average daily turnover in global foreign exchange markets is estimated at $3.98 trillion, a growth of approximately 20% over the $3.21 trillion daily volume as of April 2007. Some firms specializing on foreign exchange market had put the average daily turnover in excess of US$4 trillion.[4]
The $3.98 trillion break-down is as follows:

10 Websites to Watch in 2011

Published on in

 

There are more than a trillion URLs in Google’s index. Yes, that’s a one with twelve zeros after it. And Google crossed that milestone two and a half years ago. With so many sites on the web in 2011, how do you know which to pay attention to?

Mashable’s editors haven’t quite visited a trillion pages, but we’ve checked out a lot in the past year, and we’ve compiled a list of 10 websites we think are poised to have big years in 2011. Some of these are relatively new sites we think will catch the mainstream’s attention next year and others are older sites that we think will finally hit the big time in 2011.
