And I get political satire and think it can be funny. This Hour and Leno used to be good at it too and without being a hater like some are now.

Ok? I don't find most of the pitchbot (CBC, Reuters, BBC, etc) funny, but I do find some of the WS postings funny.
FYI it says right on their page "Western Standard Pitchbot
@WesternStd
Satire and parody. Below the real Western Standard."
BUT, doesn't it say more if you think its actually real?
