The best bit at TDB was how viral the Linda Lopez story got...

There was an radio host that went live with the story before being told it was satire by an on-air caller.

Lopez's opponent in that fall's congressional race tweeted out the story as legit, was called on, and then started an argument with TDB about the fact that they published it at all.

In the online comments, it was pointed out repeatedly that the article was satire, and yet commenters still argued with the people pointing it out, basically asking "how do you know it's satire?"

It was a far, far more amusing to watch the story unfold than to read the article itself.
