Borowitz Plans to Quit
Andy Borowitz, the acclaimed humorist, announced today that, after his last column at the end of June, he will no longer engage in political and cultural dialogue. In response to reporters' questions, he said that there was now no place for satire presented as fake news.

"If babies had guns, they wouldn't be aborted"

Same-sex marriage leads to polygamy, bestiality, and statutory rape.
Borowitz asked "How can I compete with that?"
