Weird to see this from The Onion when a week or so ago on Last Week Tonight you had literal employees saying they wouldn't fly on a Boeing at a Boeing factory.

So what happens when the satire is reality? Where do we go from here?
...the bar?
Good idea let’s go to the kings head and wait for this all to blow over. Hopefully if a Boeing aircraft decides to blow over, it’ll land over the road and squash the foxtons on the corner.
Turn all the lights down now?
Ugh. I hate when The Onion reports on real news.
It's happening too often. Quick get the pitch forks
“The wings don’t even flap.”
"I prefer the majesty of rail"
Boeing’s reputation has suffered serious damage following several high-profile equipment failures, including a door panel detaching during an Alaska Airlines flight.
I wasn't sure if this bit was real or not, but this actually happened. Holy shit.
First time online since January? :)
Where ya been, buddy?
I mean, I know it’s The Onion, but this certainly doesn’t have to be a joke.
I am so very confused right now.
Thing is, it isn't. Boeing factory workers said they wouldn't fly on a Boeing plane during an hidden recording.
