Hi! The Onion is bringing back our Writing Fellowship.
The fellowship has produced some of the biggest names in comedy, at The Onion and elsewhere.
It was a casualty private equity. We are reviving it.
The program is six months long and includes health insurance.

Tim, could you please explain why this isn't remote, especially given the tight turn around between the app deadline and start? But why isn't it remote because it's 2024 and plenty of outlets are remote for fellowships?

I am VERY excited about bringing back the writing fellowship.
It’s important for The Onion to have a writers room with new and weird ideas, and it’s important to maintain a pipeline of great comedy writers for the world in general.
It's a good job. Please apply.

Did you all acquire the rights to any of the "A.V. Club" stuff? The Onion's A.V. Undercover series was incredible and has been missing from YouTube for unexplained reasons for a long time. People would love its return. If you all don't have the rights, you should buy A.V. Club for like $5.

fwiw I see you doing this stuff and fighting the good fight and it kicks ass. I didn't expect you to take this turn in your career, but I'm glad you did and I wish you a ton of success.

oh i thought i spotted a typo and thought just move on nobody likes a typo spotter and then i read “Ability to identify weakness in others’ written pieces and give tactful notes to help them improve” and had to consider it all over again only to arrive at the same conclusion, false alarm, no comment

Ben I’m not sure if you’re aware but the Supreme Court just ruled that we are not allowed to have nice things in 2024. You need to stop what you’re doing. It’s against the law.

I’d apply except no chance I’m living in Chicago. I hope you post again when it’s remote-work, like most desirable jobs nowadays.

I'll re-up my standing offer that you don't pay me and I don't write anything for you but I'm still on the masthead and you can just publish anything you want under my name, which is I assume how it works with Pamela Paul
