Yes, It’s Satire

A standing clarification for the literal-minded, the easily-forwarded, and the occasional attorney.

Leak Social — a Whisker-Leaks Media production — is a satirical publication. Everything here is invented for comic effect. The headlines are jokes. The quotes are jokes. The “leaked documents” are jokes in a trench coat. Nothing on this site is a factual claim about any real person, company, or event.

We traffic in real fake news: straight-faced nonsense, played deadpan, because that’s where the joke lives. If a story here reads as plausible, that’s a comment on the times, not a report from them.

The fine print, sincerely

Leak Social is a work of satire and parody. Every story, quote, source, and “leaked document” here is invented for comic effect. Nothing on this site is a factual claim about any real person, company, or event. Any resemblance to actual reporting is the joke.

Please don’t. And if a friend does, be kind — send them back here. We put “About” in the menu for exactly that reason.
