A List of All Satire Outlets.
Thespoof.com is where I started also but I'd love to learn of more. Can we create a sticky thread where people can post details of other sites?
Thanks
Andy

Re: Listing of other outlets?
Sure - how about THIS one. So if you know somewhere that accepts story submissions, please create an entry for it here.
Include at a minimum:
- Site
- How to Qualify to write
- Amount of automation
- General Impressions
PLEASE don't have discussions in this thread. It should end up as a list of satire resources that writers can quickly scan to see if they are suitable for their publications.
The rest of this section can then be threads about particular sites. If necessary, we can create a forum for any specific site ( like we have for The Spoof right now ) as demanded.
Jenna.

Lessee...
I've been published at(and therefore had good experiences with):
http://glossynews.com
http://glossynews.com/mpf/tutorial.htm
http://www.newshax.com
http://www.newshax.com/modules/news/submit.php
http://utterpants.co.uk
http://utterpants.co.uk/contribute.html
http://www.zinos.com
http://www.zinos.com/f/z/author_signup.html
and of course, the place we call spoof.
I'll have to get back to you on how exactly to submit, since four of the five (all but pants) have a system where you upload stories yourself, and I can't exactly remember how it was I set up my accounts. Of course anyone is free to check the sites out themselves, and click on the appropriate 'submit to us' links.

Re: A List of All Satire Outlets.
DeadBrain
Mostly politics. Has both UK and US editions.
The Brains Trust
Again, more politics based, and more for UK headlines.

Re: A List of All Satire Outlets.
Esteemed writers,
I applaud your methodical approach. While regrettably my own site does not accept submissions, may I propose one or two additional sites for your consideration:
Deadbrain US
http://www.deadbrain.com
A US version of the British site, run by an American editor working in cahoots with the UK editor. They communicate regularly of course, but I believe one must submit to each site separately.
The Fake News
http://www.thefakenews.com
Some of the same people who work on GlossyNews.
Brokennewz
http://www.brokennewz.com
Has a full-time staff, but I believe they still accept submissions which they run on weekends.
Humorfeed.com has a good selection of sites to search through. While many of them don't accept submissions - I think you've already identified all the members who do, besides the ones I list here - many of them do have nice long links pages which may prove useful.

Re: A List of All Satire Outlets.
I've put a few stories on deadbrain. I like the site...it takes a day or two to get a piece accepted then another day or so for it to post, but the story will stay for several days.
I posted one on Handlebars but I think they got scared of my rabid anti goverment drivel and politely asked me to go away and delete their name from my computer.
The weirdest and longest submission wise was Exsqusite Corpse. The editor is a commentator on NPR, Andre Cous...Chou...oh, whatever; he's pretty cool so I submitted. Six months ago. The story (Nun But The Best) appeared in this current issue. DO NOT write topical stories for these guys. The people you're satirizing may be dead before your piece gets published.
I also post on Kalid Kalim's Unconfirmed Sources. He's put stories on spoof before. I've got two up there now. Good site and Kalim's a good guy. Shame about that name though...definately on some FBI list somewhere.

That would be:

http://www.corpse.org/
http://unconfirmedsources.com/
And a quick read shows that Brianna has got some stiff competition over there...

Re: A List of All Satire Outlets.
It might be just be but unconfirmed sources doesn't seem to offer a byline.
