The Onion is a spoof publication.  It used
to be based in Madison, Wisconsin...but
recently went big-time and moved to New York.
The paper version is distributed free at
the Univ. of Wisconsin, Madison and other
locations around town.  I'm not sure what
its paper distribution is outside of Madison.

They also have a few book-length publications,
such as "Our Dumb Century."
