“This Video of Our Magazine’s Sales Meeting Will Break Your Heart”
“How Swell is That Kim Jong-un? No Reason to Hack Time Warner, Is There Now, Right?”
“The Lives of Angry Protesters with Vandalism Tools in the Vicinity of Our Publishing Headquarters Matter. Now, Who Do We Make the Check out to, Mr. Sharpton?”
“Exclusive: Redacted Justice Department Documents So Shocking That We’ve Redacted Them Even Further at the Request of the Justice Department”
“Infographic: Top Infographic Graphics of All Time” (warning: graphic content)
“Prostitute: Eccentric Congressman Client ‘One Weird Trick’”
