The Onion team is back with more deadpan headlines, opinion pieces, news in brief . . . in fact every last damn word published by America’s Finest News Source™ in the past year. This is their fifth book and the second in a series of complete yearly roundups - the previous 12 months’ editions, and not available online - with all the news The Onion brought to the masses in their fourteenth year. From the cutting edge of world events came, ‘US Urges Bin Laden To Form Nation It Can Attack’, ‘President Urges Calm Restraint Among Nation's Ballad Singers’ and ‘Eight Million Americans Rescued From Poverty With Redefinition Of Term’. Not forgetting old favourites, the team also found time to champion stories like ‘Pepsi Super Bowl Ad Raises Worldwide Pepsi-Awareness 0.00000000001 Percent’ and ‘Ünited Stätes Toughens Image With Umlauts’. The Onion Ad Nauseam Volume 14 is back to bring you pure Onion, wrapping it’s cultural commentary and loony anecdotes in the language of a suburban daily. Still the original and best way to take a humorous look at world events, this will appeal to anyone with a sense of humour . . . except maybe if you work in politics.

With the style and irreverence of Vice magazine and the critique of the corporatocracy that made Naomi Klein's No Logo a global hit, the cult magazine Stay Free!—long considered the Adbusters of the United States—is finally offering a compendium of new and previously published material on the impact of consumer culture on our lives. The book questions, in the broadest sense, what happens to human beings when their brains are constantly assaulted by advertising and corporate messages. Most people assert that advertising is easily ignored and doesn't have any effect on them or their decision making, but Ad Nauseam shows that consumer pop culture does take its toll. In an engaging, accessible, and graphically appealing style, Carrie McLaren and Jason Torchinsky (as well as contributors such as David Cross, The Onion's Joe Garden, The New York Times's Julie Scelfo, and others) discuss everything from why the TV program CSI affects jury selection, to the methods by which market researchers stalk shoppers, to how advertising strategy is like dog training. The result is an entertaining and eye-opening account of the many ways consumer culture continues to pervade and transform American life.
