CNN Shirt: Lamely Ripping Off The Onion

CNN Shirt: Lamely Ripping Off The Onion

April 30, 2008 · By Wiff Rightly · 0 Comments

Do you ever read CNN’s headlines and think to yourself “Man, I’d love to have a shirt that says that on it?” Well, fret no longer, my friend. Taking a page directly from The Onion, you can now buy a “CNN Shirt” complete with (not so zany) headlines. It’s just like the shirts you can buy on The Onion Store, only not funny. And boring. And mildly to horribly depressing. Hooray!

I know I’m itching for my “Federal contracting chief quits under fire” shirt to come in! Oh! And my “Incest dad vacationed while kids locked up” shirt! That one’s bound for a few good laughs!

CNN Shirt is still in beta (i.e. we’re not sure this is going to catch on so we’re just going to call it beta so when if flops we don’t look as stupid) so check it out, or not, before the sites’s taken down, beaten, spit on and hidden away in the basement.

So, if you’re looking for a “Crying 4-year-old found along highway” (That one’s SO good!) shirt, you should get ‘em while they’re hot.

this seems like an onion joke.

Um…about the beta thing. I dunno if this still works, but when CNN first cranked this thing out you could fuck with the URL to produce yr own personalized CNN shirts. I almost ordered the “WTF CNN” hack.
