Quoting:
it would be more like the onion than anything else i've seen online but not really quite like that either... do you think this might not be a good idea because it's hard or stiff competition or something else?

both......there are many other news parody sites on the internet, but the problem is, most of those guys are paid writers that were hired because of their great comedy writing ability....do you think you can compete with them?  I mean, I think I can honestly admit that the issue of Nonsense we did was amazing in the fact that it was all around strong on the basis of parody and funniness....the thing is, it was writen by a whole group of people...all of whom have distinct comedy personalities (in fact, one is a writers assistant for SNL, and another an intern(who has been on the show) for Howard Stern), and we had a clear target to parody (Hofstra's school Newspaper 'The Chronicle'), so it was made easier by that and the fact that our audience was familiar with the parodied object.....


we recieved more compliments and had more people saying  "this was the greatest issue youve ever done",  or "This is better than anything Ive ever seen" or "Billy Florio, I want to bear your baby!" than any other issue in the past......

anyway, its hard to come up with material from so little sources, but it will be even harder to get noticed and compete......

plus, then theres libel and slander laws.....parody doesnt protect everything
