Even the government of mainland China was "fooled" by the Onion.
O had run a "story" about how US congressioinal representatives were insisting on a new capitol building - or else (kind of like sports team owners who threaten to leave a town if they don't get a new stadium)
The Chinese media thought it was a genuine news story - and once the truth was revealed, were reluctant to publicly admit they had made a mistake.
My husband and son are big Onion fans & found the story hilarious.
