For more evidence of our time-honored journalistic commitment to endangering lives, please see our previous coverage of gay people, immigrants, Black people, and women.

My personal all time favorite is this one: https://theonion.com/general-motors-introduces-new-instant-win-airbags-1819564102/

It was also basically a "news" article version of an SNL mock ad from the 70s about a 3-bladed razor with the tagline, "because you'll buy anything."
Fuck this one was funny

I believe that the first one is (fictional) The Onion publisher T. Herman Zweibel, the second one is hockey hall-of-famer Joe Sakic (who wore jersey number 19), and the 5th one looks like Mary Kay Letourneau (who infamously got pregnant with her 12-year-old student). Number 4, I can't make out.
Steve Hannah is the old CEO of the onion, I've been trying to figure out the rest
