Press & Media Page
SpinTaxi has been covered, discovered, discredited, and occasionally worshipped by the world’s most confused media outlets. Our presence in the press is as real as it is regrettable. Below is a sampling of our proudest, strangest, and most legally ambiguous media moments.
Television Appearances (Uninvited)
- CNN (Accidental Citation) – A SpinTaxi headline was misquoted during a breaking news segment on congressional decorum. We sent them a fruit basket and a cease-and-desist.
- Fox News (Rage Bait) – Our parody piece “Woke Bears Cancel Hibernation” was discussed seriously for six minutes. The anchor blamed “California.”
- QVC (Unconfirmed) – A host read one of our article titles thinking it was a real product. Sales of “Holy Water-Infused Scented Candles for Atheists” skyrocketed.
Podcasts That Regret Inviting Us
- The Truth Hurts with Tucker & Trudy – SpinTaxi editor Sigrid Bjornsson was asked to explain irony. She left after five minutes, citing “narrative hostility.”
- Media Watchdogs Anonymous – Called us “the reason journalism professors drink before noon.” We agreed and offered sponsorship.
- Joe Rogan Experience* – Dusty Chadwell was scheduled but missed the taping after confusing ayahuasca with kombucha.
Print & Digital Press Mentions
- The Onion – Once accused us of “joke laundering.” We responded by faxing them 40 headlines in Morse code.
- Reddit – Our articles frequently appear on r/NotTheOnion and r/ConspiracySimps. Reactions range from “LOL” to “This is how the CIA works.”
- Snopes – Has a dedicated staffer named “Carl” who fact-checks our homepage every Thursday. Hi Carl!
