Not just anybody can get away with making an argument at the Supreme Court by calling the court's staff "Latin dorks." But then again, The Onion is a special kind of amicus curiae. The Onion, a well-known satirical publication based in Chicago, filed a 23-page legal brief at the Supreme Court on Monday that captured the attention of court watchers even on the busy first day of the high court's new term. The underlying case involves an Ohio man who was arrested after creating an online parody to mock his local police department. In its friend-of-the-court brief, The Onion is supporting the man as only The Onion could. After describing itself as "the world's leading news publication" with a "towering standard of excellence," the publication goes on to explain how parody works, through parody.
