To be fair to WaPo, The Onion returned to print in 2024 and reportedly did pretty well from the move.

ETA: If you’ve had your interest piqued, you can grab the print versions through their membership program - minimum cost is a pretty hefty $99 a year, though.
Ha, glad to hear that the Onion is making it!

Google gives out slop for free. Why pay for it?
