The article itself is satirical, but it's reporting on a real event --- that The Onion has just reached an agreement to buy InfoWars. It's maybe marginal for the community, but this is basically the only time that one gets to have a single article on both The Onion and Not The Onion --- the initial attempt some time back, which fell through, made it to both --- so I couldn't resist.
I for one welcome my new info lords. Hopefully god keeps telling the new host what time it is in the everlasting war to fight the 2% of globalist oligarchs who are against police states and the republican party.

EDIT: For good measure, link to NPR's coverage.

@tal it will likely be more factual under The Onion than it ever was before.
