**The Onion Rises Again: Satirical News Outlet Finds Success in Print Revival**
**[City, State] – [Date]** – In a surprising twist for the digital age, The Onion, the satirical news publication, is thriving a year after its return to print. After halting its print edition in 2013 to go fully digital, the Onion relaunched in August 2024, now boasts over 53,000 subscribers to its monthly mailed edition.
Executive Editor Jordan LaFlure credits the new ownership for empowering the staff to pursue this unconventional path. “They recognized that we needed to generate revenue directly from our readers,” LaFlure explained, “rather than over-depending on website banner ads.”
The print edition offers a unique reading experience. LaFlure emphasized that the publication provides a contrast of humor within a closed space that helps the jokes.
When asked if the return to print was the ultimate troll move, LaFlure stated, “I suppose it is, I had not thought of it in those terms, and that’s lovely to hear.” While The Onion benefits from the struggles of traditional media, LaFlure insists that better journalism is needed for a functioning society. He hopes other media outlets can learn from their success and find new ways to connect with audiences.
The Onion’s resurgence proves that bold experimentation can still find an audience in today’s media landscape.
