CNN Reporter Gets Upset That Babylon Bee Story Went Viral, Bee Responds

The Babylon Bee, a wildly successful satirical website, has caused reporters to freak out once again.

The latest hullaballoo started on January 5, when former CIA analyst and cyber disinformation researcher Cindy Otis pointed out that a recent satirical article from the satirical website (which says satire in the website tagline, in case it wasn’t obvious enough) received – gasp – 500,000 shares on social media. Otis claimed some of her family members called her to say their Republican friends were sharing the article “like it’s legit.”
