Dog Doesn’t Consider Itself Part Of Family

"Dog Doesn’t Consider Itself Part Of Family"
From: The Onion
By: The Onion

The subject being satired, are the local news articles, revolving around seemingly useless topics. This news article helps show people that many of the local news stations broadcast many unneeded articles, and cover news that is not important to society. Articles such as missing children or any other article that could save a life, are rarely seen and instead, articles about useless and unimportant subjects are shown to the public, making many people blind to what is really going on in their neighborhood. This article in particular article is funny due to the eye-catching title and hilarious subject. Articles like these are obviously satire, and there content is not any more serious then there titles. This article in particular makes the dog talk, having an interview take place with the reporter and the dog saying things such as  “Hey, they’re not bad people, and I appreciate that they let me ride in the car sometimes, but do I think of them as my own family members? God, no,”. More satire statements fill the article, closing it with "At press time, Pepper’s stance was reaffirmed when Denise O’Donnell made him sit and beg for several moments before letting him have a piece of cheese."
