Something Smells at The Onion

It’s been a banner year for digital impersonation.

First, hackers insert a phony story about explosions on the AP Twitter Feed.

Then they tricked the Drudge Report into running a phony news story about Mayor Bloomberg going berserk after being refused a second slice of pizza.

But now – Syrian revolutionaries hacking The Onion Twitter Feed, with lines about chemical weapons actually being jihadist’s body odor – that’s satire so recursive, it’s just another day’s news.
