I was just reading the online version of that satirical newspaper The Onion, and I thought I'd see if the Eagles ever got a mention. Sure enough:

http://www.theonion.com/articles/horoscope-for-the-week-of-november-18-1998,11766/ (see "Aries")

http://www.theonion.com/articles/la-efficiency-chosen-as-site-of-2000-libertarian-c,1480/ (small Henley mention)

http://www.theonion.com/articles/jackies-10-best-entertainment-moments-of-2007,16657/ (small mention)

http://www.theonion.com/articles/steven-tyler-laid-off-from-aerosmith-as-bands-jobl,2480/ (small mention)

But here they get their own article!

A few one-liner gags:

Ouch! Those first three are cutting. The last one is actually very funny and quite cute!
Thanks, Soda.

Yeah, apparently the editors of that paper have no love for Hell Freezes Over.

The "I'd like to teach the world to sing" Coke one next to it was pretty funny, too!
