List of satirical fake news websites

Main article: List of fake news websites
This article contains dynamic lists that may never be able to satisfy particular standards for completeness. You can help by adding missing items with reliable sources.

The following is a list of satirical websites that have been created by companies and contain content that has been designated by fact-checkers as fake news.

List

Even though many satirical sources are labeled as such with disclaimers, there is a long history of satirical content being falsely perceived as true.[1] According to Snopes, this misunderstanding can be due to a variety of reasons:

  • A lack of understanding of literary techniques typically used for satire, such as sarcasm, irony and exaggeration
  • Satirical content being shown out of context in e-mails, memes and social media posts
  • Satirical content not being seen in full
  • Different satirical techniques appealing to different audiences
  • Different readers having different frames of reference
  • Some readers not expecting to see satirical content.[2]

The following table lists websites considered by fact-checkers to be satire:
