Poll: Is The Onion Going To Far?

After watching this first video, I just shrugged it off as just a joke.  Then I saw the second one and started to get a little offended.  So I have a question for you:

    Yep, its the Onion and it is satire and they are one of the only equal opportunity agitators out there.

    Nope..i think its pretty darn funny. With satire you always run the risk of being offending someone.. and actually if your not offending someone..i think your doing it wrong.
  • Satire never goes too far as long as all groups are satirized. The Onion has a long history of making fun of everybody.

    The whole point of the onion is to make fun of stupid people who WOULD say things like this. Its a satire of stupidity. I'm not sure how that can be taken "too far".

    I don't think its going to far LOL. I think you have to take everything with a grain of salt and just try to find the humor in it! People kind of know what to expect with these guys so personally, nothing shocks me :)
