THE ONION's unique take on the news and newspapers makes stark -- and hilarious -- commentary on American society. No subject is taboo. No aspect of our culture is sacred. "The Onion" believes that one of the most powerful qualities of humor is to help reveal the truth. In fact, THE ONION was the first publication to have the courage to use humor to respond to the events of September 11. Some stories may rub you the wrong way, but like it or not, The Onion exercises our constitutional right to freedom of expression. Rob Siegel, THE ONION's editor-in-chief, puts it this way: "When we're doing our job really well, we feel that we're getting to the heart of a matter more deeply than a real newspaper does -- or can." EGG spends a week at THE ONION following an issue in the making and meeting its creators.
