Trump Creates Ten Million Jobs for Fact Checkers
WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)—In
less than a week as President, Donald J. Trump has created ten million
jobs for fact checkers, the Department of Labor has confirmed. Harland
Dorrinson, the executive director of HonestyWatch, a Minnesota-based
fact-checking organization, called the pace of hiring in the
fact-checking industry since Trump’s Inauguration “blistering.”
“The
nation’s supply of fact checkers is being stretched to the breaking
point,” he said. “There are not enough fact checkers to keep up with the
exponential growth in alternative facts.”
Dorrinson
said that he expects hiring in the fact-checking sector to remain
robust for the next four years, outpacing employment in manufacturing,
agriculture, and technology.
“With
Trump in the White House, recent college graduates are flocking to
careers in fact checking,” he said. “There’s guaranteed job security,
and you basically just have to Google stuff.”
In
his daily press briefing, Sean Spicer, the White House press spokesman,
touted the surging employment for fact checkers but said that the
actual number of jobs created was closer to ten billion.
