    Yeah. This is great news I needed today.

    The Onion is an absolute gem, too. Everything about this makes me a little happy.

      Many people have commented, since they were bought out by their (now previous) ownership that they really needed to be owned by someone who both understood them, actually liked them, and could fund them, even through periods when they might not always be “extremely profitable”. Their (now past) ownership wasn’t the type to be so patient with periods of unprofitably or the controversy that the publication might expectedly generate.

      I’m pretty certain that its new owners will.
