The Onion Teases Tech
The cultural obsession with all things tech received several prods in this week's edition of The Onion. The satirical newspapers highlighted the debut of Apple's new iPhone with a rundown of its features. It snidely noted that the highly anticipated gadget includes an "exclusive link to Google Street View so you can watch yourself using your iPhone at all times."
Google got additional treatment in The Onion's weekly installment of "American Voices," which documented the reaction of three pedestrians on the recent report rating the Internet giant's privacy practices as the worst among search firms. One fictional observer quipped, "This news has definitely made me think twice about providing my credit card number along with each search query." -- Theresa Poulson
