About Check Please!

Check Please! is a journal devoted to the serious examination of humor and satire, ranging from its role in relation to actual journalism to practical considerations of producing an online satire site. It is intended as a resource for both the online satire and journalism communities.

It is published in association with HumorFeed.com, a community of news satire webmasters working together to improve and promote their respective sites via common ventures such as HumorFeed.

It is our goal to establish Check Please! as the foremost publication for the satire news community, and as a valuable resource for anyone seeking to understand the roles that satire news plays online as a form of commentary and influence on mainstream journalism.
