“The Onion of the Midwest" [The New York Times (2002)], Recoil magazine has been West Michigan's beloved free monthly news satire tabloid since 2001. Pulled from an archive of 200 print issues, News Satire You Can Trust – Volume One is a 110-page collection of Recoil's best satire and comedy, featuring such favorite parody news articles as “Keg Found Dead In Bathtub,” “Pervert Born Into Bondage,” “Box of Rocks Graduates From University of Phoenix” and “Family Ripped Apart By Bitter Divorce, Bear.” Author Cliff Frantz’ Recoil anthology rivals the compendiums of print satire pioneers The Onion, delivering edgy laugh-out-loud headlines, articles and one-liners accompanied by staged photos and bogus news graphics. Recoil’s news satire includes fake editorial columns, advice sections, horoscopes, tips, self-help quizzes and more. News Satire You Can Trust is an open-any-page-and-laugh compilation found exclusively on the coffee tables of readers who pride themselves on keeping their comedic sense honed.
