Analysis / Bias

In review, Huzler’s brand of satire is often controversial and widely shared such as this Scientists Discover New HIV Strain, That Explodes Your P*nis. Another story reads Tekashi 6ix9ine Reportedly Reveals Identity of Infamous Zodiac Killer To Judge As Bonus. Most stories poke fun at celebrities. While other rating sources have given a red shield to this site, we give them the satire rating as they fully disclaim this is a satire website. Not sure how anyone can be confused.
