SATIRE / PARODY — not real news.

McAllen Satire: Fake News from the City of Palms

Welcome to the McAllen hub, where the shopping is world-class, the traffic on 10th Street is eternal, and our completely fabricated news coverage is second to none. We cover the imaginary drama of La Plaza Mall, the secret lives of the snowbirds, and the ongoing, totally fake battle against toll road expansion. If it’s happening in McAllen, it probably isn’t, but we wrote a joke about it anyway.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is the news about McAllen on this site real?

A: Absolutely not. It’s 100% satire. If we say the mayor is replacing the palm trees with giant marigolds, it’s a joke.

Q: Why is the traffic so bad in your fake articles?

A: Because mimicking the perfection of McAllen traffic would be boring. We exaggerate the gridlock for comedic effect.

Q: Can I submit a fake tip about my HOA?

A: Yes, please. Send all fabricated grievances to our fictional staff.
