Congratulations on taking your first step into a wider world. The Onion has brought forth hard-hitting reporting and ground-shaking opinion pieces for generations. During that time, the paper's devoted readers could be expected to feel a wide range of emotions including joy, schadenfreude, and smugness, as well as other moods. However, even the most ardent fans would have to admit that there is still much to learn about America’s Finest News Source. The newsletter you have just signed up for will help close that gap. Not only that, the newsletter you have signed up for will provide opportunities to sign up for the much coveted Onion membership. It may also introduce offers that those who have not signed up for the newsletter will simply have to live without. Our newsletter has amassed a reputation for being as “fair and honest” as the venerated newspaper. Critics have also admitted our current digital newsletter is far more eco-friendly than the 1976 version printed on recycled tires, the majority of which remain on fire in the smoldering ruins of our Cincinnati-area storage facility. We hope you will find the newsletter enlightening and enjoyable. Some say it’s the perfect start to their day. Others say it’s the only ray of hope in their otherwise meaningless lives. No matter what, we hope that the newsletter adds value to your life and does not detract from it. A hard lesson we learned from that ill-fated 1976 rubber newsletter debacle. Lastly, in a rare display of generosity, The Onion has also granted you the ability to take some control over your preferences regarding your daily/weekly subscription. Please email membership@theonion.com to share any issues that may have arisen with the newsletter.
