I remember finding in the early 1990s, in some used book store, a printed copy of The Onion about the Titanic with some title like "Man's Hubris Over Nature" made to look like it was a newspaper printed in 1912.

This is literally The Onion.

Well the link is from cnn.com, and I don't see you contributing anything. So thanks for the report.

No need to be snippy. I just figured you hadn't read your own link, or you would have seen the first two words literally at the top of the page that say "The Onion".
