Exclusive News Scoop - Story of the Day on Hero Dog

Hat tip to 90 Miles for the CNN Babylon Bee story.  


U.S.—Everyone praised the classified "Hero Dog" for taking down ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi.

Everyone, that is, except CNN, who quickly searched through the dog's internet history and college yearbooks. Sure enough, CNN found a picture of the Hero Dog partying at obedience school. In the picture, the dog is seen sniffing a butt without consent.
...
The dog has issued a statement: "I like butts. I've always liked butts. I still like butts, but I never sniff butts to the point of excess. Who's a good boy? I am."
I think the Bee got it wrong, though.  Conan (the dog) is a female, according to The BLOG.  Edit that last line in your head to, "who's a good girl?" etc..

When I saw this I "L'ed My A Off".  Does this sound like a news story that could be true, but that's just a little too far?  The more it makes you look, the more it makes you think it could be true, the better the satire.

  1. I love the Bee. Best part? When Snopes debunks them.

  2. Maybe Conan identifies as a male?
