SATIRE / PARODY — not real news.

Weslaco Satire: Parody News from the Heart of the Valley

Weslaco sits right in the middle of everything, and our satirical news sits right in the middle of Weslaco. We bring you the completely fabricated tales of the Weslaco Museum’s cursed exhibits, the imaginary turf wars at the local meat markets, and the totally fake civic meetings about what to do with the old downtown strip. It’s the Heart of the Valley, and we’re here to poke at its arteries.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Are the meat markets actually fronts for underground bingo?

A: Only on Tuesdays. Just kidding, that’s satire.

Q: Did the city really ban dancing in our fake article?

A: Yes, in the fictional town of our creation. Real Weslaco loves to dance.

Q: Why do you write about the downtown strip so much?

A: Historic areas are a goldmine for exaggerated, nostalgic parody.
