Line #3 YMMV/BabylonBee


1	* HilariousInHindsight:
2	** A 2018 article, [[https://babylonbee.com/news/president-trump-declares-babylon-bee-trusted-news-source "Trump Declares Babylon Bee His Most Trusted News Source,"]] became this in October 2020 when Trump shared a ''Bee'' article on Twitter.
3	** A 2020 article, [[https://babylonbee.com/news/the-view-audience-applauds-hitler-after-revelation-he-never-voted-for-trump "'The View' Audience Applauds Hitler After Revelation He Never Voted For Trump"]], became this in 2022 after Creator/WhoopiGoldberg infamously stated that UsefulNotes/TheHolocaust was "not about race" and that it involved "two white groups of people," resulting in a two-week suspension from ''Series/TheView''. Naturally, the Bee [[https://babylonbee.com/news/while-watching-the-view-in-hell-hitler-surprised-to-learn-holocaust-wasnt-about-race lampooned this as well]].
4	** One [[https://babylonbee.com/news/10-exciting-kids-shows-coming-soon-to-daily-wire-plus article suggests]] an American made MoralSubstitute to ''WesternAnimation/{{Bluey}}'' for Creator/{{Bentkey}} with ''more patriotic American accents''. A few weeks later, WesternAnimation/ChipChilla was a launch title for the platform.
5	* ItsTheSameNowItSucks: A common criticism of the ''Bee'' is that a lot of their posts default to jokes based on the premise of "[[AmbiguousGenderIdentity X identifies as Y]]". It became so prevalent, they did a comedy sketch on their [=YouTube=] channel -- "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C0xeqOqpekE Conservative Comedy Writers VS. Liberal Comedy Writers FIGHT]]" -- as a form of SelfReferentialHumor.
6	* OvershadowedByControversy: The ''Bee'' has gained notoriety for the issue of [[PoesLaw satire and misinformation]], as figures such as then-president UsefulNotes/DonaldTrump and ''[[UsefulNotes/BritishNewspapers The Guardian]]'' have taken it seriously. They have faced accusations of deliberate deception, and the ''Bee'' in turn has responded with claims of their content being misrepresented and wrongly censored. The "[[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Babylon_Bee#Mistaken_for_factual_reporting Mistaken for factual reporting]]" section on Website/{{Wikipedia}} takes up the majority of the ''Bee's'' coverage.
7	* TearJerker:
8	** In [[https://youtu.be/4aymk4g1P9I "Companies Strangely Silent On Pride Month In The Middle East"]], The Babylon Bee News Desk reports on various companies displaying rainbow Twitter logos for Pride Month, but are disappointed to see their respective Twitter logos for the Middle East did not get the same treatment. But then they take solace in [[FauxSymbolism Skittles having a rainbow logo]] for the Middle East. Then they receive a new report that Skittles has been thrown off a roof in Saudi Arabia.
9	** [[https://youtu.be/1Hyx4a0Se7U "College Figures Out How To Discriminate Now That Affirmative Action Is Banned"]] has two college admission officers seeking out a black applicant stereotype an applicant named Aiden as white, and reject him. [[spoiler:The skit ends with Aiden, who is black, sadly telling his mother that he was rejected.]]
