    No, it is Chinese. But it's nothing compared to the Japanese ones. :(

  • not as good as it used to be.

  • Eva Brauns late husband haha. I wonder how many people fell for it?

  • England has pawn shops?

    SInce when?

  • @cashcrewstudios There is usually one in a town center somewhere. They sell awesome shit like crossbows.

  • @cashcrewstudios yeah, and they also sing songs at bars without the aid of being totally fuck-drunk.

  • @cliffandy I'm British, and it's called karaoke :)

  • Blah

  • Al Qaeda is right; they would have destroyed America's mass transit system instead of England's because America's infrastructure is crap.

  • During the space race bit they where playing the National anthem of the USSR 1977 version

  • The eighth grade teacher joke killed me. And Eva von Braun. I wonder how many people got that one...

  • @Nikoliaz it's eva braun you didn't even get that one

  • @Nikoliaz

    Considering they straight up showed Hitler, with the mustache and everything, I'm going out on a limb to say that quite a few people got it.

  • @Nikoliaz ...how about every-fucking-body...

  • That's kind of them, I wasn't a fan of her music, but for them to do that is respectful.

  • The nations weirdest teen looks like your average hipster.

  • 0:16 - kinda tripped balls....

  • gotta go buy some tampons for my bleedin twat

  • the first thing about the weird teen had me laughing so much and the soviet russia not letting go of the cold war/space race even though their is no ussr any more thing had me laugh my balls of 

  • Shaq hahaha

  • R.I.P AMY WINEHOUSE

    NEW SONG BY MARYANN COTTON '' DIE IN BRITAIN ''

  • ...and something actually worth destroying... hehe

  • Amazing the idiots think drugs are okay, "she wasn't hurting anyone", you think her family wasn't hurt?

  • @johnmonk66 I know...that pisses me off. I'm always shocked...How stupid can people be?!

  • The botanist one was funny.

  • Amy Winehouse deserved it

  • "A Botanist is holding up a salad bad" hahaha

  • I guess this is good if you don't have access to the print version...I guess.

  • How did I know a bunchy of whiny people were going to make a big deal over the title? It's funny how people's memories get fuzzy when someone dies. She was a drug addict and a crackhead at that. Crack!! The drug that poor people from the ghetto smokes!! lmao, you people are sheep...

  • Lmao well done. Love you news better then what is on TV. Lmao

  • This was amazing lol

  • first i was like wtf, then i saw it was the onion.

  • lol this is as good as the old onion. :)

  • annie whinehouse really died?not that i would care...never listened that crap :D but...i found out at ONN...so i wouldnt jump sayin hey shes that...shes prolly not xD

  • @LTN000 yeah shes dead x

  • dunno why everyones making a big deal outa it, nobody gave a shit about her when she was alive, why care now?the junkie is gone, get over it, she did nothing great for the world but pop pills and get drunk on tv, such a great person -____-

  • @baozytools

    Just doing drugs doesn't make someone a bad person, you know. It's not like she was hurting anyone else.

  • @ThirdRAILKink Yeah, that's the problem. "As long as you're hurting anyone else..." People should be more caring of others and put some effort in helping each other. Where were her parents or so-called friends? And when are musicians going to stop the whole "sex and drugs" fad? At least drop the drugs. 

  • @votumseparatum1 NO DRUGS!!!? are you madd?!!!! thats where all the good music comes from

  • @ThirdRAILKink

    i know i sounded insensitive, but it pains me to see someone ruin their life and then finally die from drugs

  • Car manufacturers lobby won't allow building of a better and modern public transportation. Bad public transportation is a perfect ad for buying a car! ;D More cars on the streets means more profit for oil companies so you have oil lobby to go against as well.

  • WHAT AN OUTSTANDING NEWS NETWORK!!

  • lol

  • i love how the united states actually did end the shuttle program a few weeks ago

  • The only reason that I enjoy watching ONN more than regular television broadcast is because I know that they are joking. The regular broadcast hides the truth trying to twist the lies into what they want you to hear to make them look better and they are serious. TRUTH-IS-SERIOUS

  • Winehouse: Too soon?

    The NASA thing? It is actually pretty depressing to think that in so little time a program that once had the backing of the whole nation is shelved..... just like that.

  • Did Eva Braun even have a Husband? I don't recognise the guy

  • @zZGhostieZz His name is Alois Schicklgruber. He was a struggling painter, doing landscape scenes and depicting pretty women with little children. After he became famous for his political views and changing his name to a cooler one, he almost succeeded in wiping of the worlds main cause for the financial crisis and the inflation.

  • you took the "too soon" to a whole different level

  • This was the best of these news reels. The bits about the Soviet Union winning the space race and al Qaeda refusing to attack our crumbling infrastructure are funny-yet-sad reminders that this country's time at the top has passed. Now it's all about the greedy non-patriots trying to grab all they can as they force the country into decline.

  • I had no idea Amy Winehouse died!! not surprised after the drugs but that's kinda sad very talented and beautiful young lady.

  • omg. THIS.WAS.FUCKING.BRILLIANT

  • Murphy Brown season 1 ? lol .

  • If only the boarders were to East Berlin again :/

  • too soon, man. too soon.

  • funny

  • And the nation is now ready for it's din-din.

  • rofl @ the alqaida-part

  • i quite liked this 1 for a change ...

  • thumb up if you thing that it would have been cooler without the "former" in the Gorbachev sentence...

  • How fucking idiotic!

  • @MrRoger1969 it's ment to be funny...

  • @MrRoger1969 you playin' runescape dawg?

  • I don't know what's sadder, the fact that this is better then Fox News or the fact this is true.

  • Anyone else lol throughout the entire Murdoch segment?

  • @dillonator42 Yes!

  • the Winehouse joke was in poor taste

  • Suck a bag of dicks disney's the little mermaid!!

  • I was the 2000th like. Woohoo. I have watched everything The Onion has posted, except for shit Pop Pilgrims or w/e.

  • @vicodinzz want a cookie?

  • @S1mpleDem0n want a life?

  • @vicodinzz Need a friend?

  • Well, I'm unsubscribing from this worthless crap, now.

  • Oh my goodness. So much goodness in one video.

  • step 1: pick up pencil

    step 2: drop it

    step 3: watch it fall

    someone has some explaining to do...

  • Too soon guys.

  • Is it wrong that I trust ONN more than any other news network despite ONN being made up?

  • @dwavenminer yes yes it is

  • @dwavenminer I SO agree with you! ONN has more credibility than CNN, BBC et al put together!

  • @dwavenminer Every time i watch Onion I feel half of it is true.

  • @tehrulez and that my old son is SATIRE at it's finest

  • @dwavenminer same here. lol.

  • @dwavenminer Not at all.

    How is ONN making up the news any different than Fox making up the news? You laugh instead of running to the bank in panic to withdraw your savings because you're afraid the gov't is going to take it all?

  • @dwavenminer Same here xD

  • @dwavenminer the funny thing is you don't

  • @volunteernation16 The funny thing is that you intended to be witty, but you just came off as an ass.

  • @tarantulady back at ya

  • loving the space race part

  • im all about this whole thing. i have a map AND glue

  • Too soon? FFS! I was making jokes about her overdosing BEFORE she was dead, now I have to stop because I was right?

  • Wow...1:10 was gold.

  • Why and how did Amy Winehouse's Grammys ended up at a pawn shop in the first place?

  • @Pepper6464 She pawned them to buy drugs of course.

  • I miss old onion skits, these ones are disappointing monologues with pictures. Not as funny as the old news casts with the hilariously good actors

  • And this is why I love The Onion <3

  • 0:28, on that Swastika looking flag, what is that symbol called?

  • @iBischoff It's the hammer and sickle, a symbol of both communism and the Soviet Union.

  • @TheChunkyAtheist

    The red flag with the white circle, the black stuff is a hammer and sickle? THought their flag was red with yellow hammer and sickle

  • @iBischoff It's the National Bolshevik flag.

  • @iBischoff Usually their flag is like that, but they had variations of it based where they were in the Soviet Union and at what time period. I can't identify that particular flag, but it is probably from one of Russia's satellite countries during the days of the Soviet Union.

  • I don't like these news recaps too much

  • Are you people serious? How did you not know who Amy Winehouse was until she died? People are nuts.

  • ..and the nation is now ready for its din-din.

  • I have to agree with Al-Qaeda on their decision. I mean with all the effort that goes on obtaining the explosives and hiding it in their underwear/shoes/beards, bombing poorly constructed infrastructure must be both unsatisfying and hard to justify to their accountants. An organization with that bombing policy doesn't have many days left.

  • HA! im eating din dins!

  • The Taliban and bridge story was brilliant. The Onion has its edge back!!!

  • are starts of david on the drapes behind a the al-quida lider?:))

  • Ha ha, I saw a segment on high speed rails on CNN just a few days ago

  • you know you haven't been paying attention to the news when you find out amy winehouse is dead through the onion...

  • The 8th grade teacher on the right should wear a bra.

  • 93 people thought it was too soon...

  • The terrorist thing is brilliant.

  • Yay! din-din! XD

  • I'm pretty sure that Shaq doesn't need any lessons in talking. Shutting up once in a while and letting others talk...that's another story.

  • Congratulations to the people of the Union of Soviet Social . . . wait isn't this 2011!? I am not still four years old am I? O_o

  • oh the shade..

  • I BET YOURE READING THIS WHILE WATCHING THIS FUCKING AD!!

  • The onion just shat on Amy.

  • Al-Qayda is refusing to do any terrorist attacks until the infrastructure is improved. Gotta love the onion.

  • Talking ,Sitting, And Looking Directly Into Things

  • Michelle Obama is a man.

  • I LIKE THESE!!!

  • ...Okay... they had me fooled until the Al Queda story... LOL XD (All the other stories were perfectly plausible!. . .)

    "We want to turn your bridges into rubble...but if we made them collapse, no one would ever believe us."

  • amy winehouse just needed someone to fuck start her head.

  • The thing on shaq and everything after that was pure gold

  • "a team of 8th grade civics teachers is dispatched to washington to teach them how the government works." pure gold.

  • Somebody bought a whole season of Murphy Brown?

  • Why did "The nation's weirdest teen buys a season one DVD of Murphy Brown" make me laugh harder than I expected?

  • ussr

  • amy winehouse was a cunt

  • It's too hot out for me to expend the energy required to laugh....but let it be known I am laughing quite hard on the inside right now. As usual...... The Onion amuses.

  • simply brilliant 

  • I like how the terrorist leader video is the same one that south park used for the family guy episodes.

  • TOO SOON!

  • Is this real? SOrry if i sound dumb but im serious!

  • @XxXxChunkyPandaxXxX real news but obviously theres a light humor side to it added by the commentator.

  • @alexv0009 C'mon, the guy is serious, let him know that the fun about the onion is that it's all a bunch of amusing lies and jokes, and specializes in fake news.

  • @XxXxChunkyPandaxXxX no its not. the onion has been making fake news for 10 years

  • Too. Soon.

  • @geodesicks I know right? I heard Eva Braun's late husband died, and I can't believe the Onion would joke about that so soon.

  • @geodesicks

    no, too late

    i was almost starting to forget she died

  • lol I thought this was true until I saw "The Onion"

  • waay too soon. I'm really gonna miss getting up at three in the morning to watch shuttle launches. :.|

  • I wonder if the same Pawn shop has the Onion's old coffee maker? ;)

  • Too soon? Hitler died fuckin years ago... we must try and move on.

  • @Denethorable

    I've known about Hitler for years. Most people just think of him as a background character in Eva Braun's illustrious life, but few know about his watercolours or brief political career.

  • @gamerunknown Yeah. Even fewer people know that he revolutionized German (and world) mass transit by introducing both an affordable automobile for the working man and the concept of the freeway.

  • @gamerunknown Oh cool, I just know him as a painter, didn't know he was into politics. I expect he was a lefty, you know these artistic types.

  • @gamerunknown nice comment

  • Al-Qaeda dissing the US lol.

  • that was actually brilliant.

  • Kinda soon :^/

  • @EaterOfCakes not soon enough
