I think a lot of this is angry writers who didn't make the move to Chicago and figure their days are numbered, so why not go for it?
― Three Word Username, Friday, 14 September 2012 10:46 (eleven years ago) link
I think the angry Onion writers who did not make the move are no longer writers.If anything, maybe it's an attention getting move from the writers who did make the move, as well as the new writers the old, ex writers prematurely denigrated.

I kinda feel like its a cyclical thing with The Onion, they get kinda stale for awhile and then every so often they'll unleash a string of stuff that pushes the limits.

Although the video dept. was still based in NY at the time, Sex House was shot in Chicago with Chicago actors. So you neeeever knoooooow.

When the sex house writers were on reddit they were saying they'd been onion writers for a while who didn't want to move to Chicago and wouldn't be doing so. I think normal onion video (the spoof news and sport stuff) has all moved to chicago, but the 'onion digital studios' stuff like sex house is funded by youtube and will be staying in nyc?
