Bluesky thread from Tim Onion with the announcement:

The Onion has spent the last two months working on a masterpiece.

It's a documentary titled Jeffrey Epstein: Bad Pedophile.

It's so good, in fact, we were set to release it in theatres nationwide on October 2nd.

Then two weeks ago, Charlie Kirk was shot.

Despite the fact that Charlie Kirk is not in this documentary, our distributor, a major national movie chain, got cold feet and pulled out.

Jeffrey Epstein: Bad Pedophile had Donald Trump in it, so they were out.

Look, I don't think it's good that we can't make fun of the world's biggest dead pedophile because he was friends with the president.

So we kept going.

We called every independent theatre we knew in major metro areas to see if they wanted to air Jeffrey Epstein: Bad Pedophile.

Most said yes.

In the last few days, we've assembled independent theatres in LA, New York, San Francisco, Minneapolis and Chicago to air this thing.

Jeffrey Epstein: Bad Pedophile will be in theatres on October 2nd after all, followed by the first theatrical screening of Sex House. It is going to be fun as hell.

My favorite part of Sex House is when they play Settlers of Catan
