About

Every week, eight headlines enter. Your certainty leaves.

Some headlines are real stories from sources. Some are completely made up.

Your job is to tell which is which. The quiz is meant as a satirical news-literacy game, not as a news outlet. Real answers include source links. Ridiculous answers are original inventions.

The format is intentionally simple: one headline, one guess, one reveal, eight times.
