On Aug. 31, 2020, Uncle Walt's Insider published an article positing that the Disneyland theme park was leaving California and moving to Texas: This item was not a factual recounting of real-life events. The article originated with a website that describes its output as being humorous or satirical in nature, as follows: The satire site's Facebook page carries a similar disclaimer: In addition to the site's disclaimer, Uncle Walt's Insider also contains several tongue-in-cheek references indicating its satirical nature. A banner at the top of the website, for instance, farcically claimed that it won the Best Made Up Awards. This banner also notes that Snopes previously identified Uncle Walt's Insider as a relatively obscure satire website in 2018. While this is true, Uncle Walt's Insider has been publishing satire for more than two years now. To our knowledge, that makes Uncle Walt's a contender to be the longest-running satire site solely devoted to Disney theme park content on the web. For background, here is why we sometimes write about satire/humor.
