Faking News, originally started as a form of blog,[1] was[2] an Indian news satire website that published fake news reports containing satire on politics and society of India.[3][4] It was a critique of mainstream news media in India.[5] The website also published occasional serious articles related to television journalism in India. The website was launched on September 15, 2008.[6]
It was founded by Rahul Roushan, a Delhi based management consultant, known by the pseudonym Pagal Patrakar, a Hindi term that literally translates to 'crazy/mad journalist' in English.[3][7]
Faking News was one of the few websites or blogs in India using the tools of sarcasm and humour to publish news satire, as is widely done in the western countries, a trend pioneered by The Onion of the US.
On 31 May 2013, it was announced that Faking News had been acquired by Network 18-led First Post.[8]
