Editorial interest 84/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A free satirical newspaper serving Dallas and Garland, with local headlines, invented resident reactions, and an adopt-a-pothole registry.

Landing page captured for the 2026-10-19 issue.
For
Dallas- and Garland-area readers who enjoy local satire
Worth noticing
The page labels its three resident reactions to the City Hall listing as people “who don’t exist.”

Field notes

The homepage groups its material into local-news sections and pairs headlines with short story copy and mock resident reactions. It explicitly flags the three quoted City Hall respondents as fictional, while the surrounding headlines draw on named places and familiar local fixtures such as DART, Fair Park, and I-635. A rack finder, newsletter signup, advertising link, store, and pothole registry give the newspaper several ways to circulate beyond the homepage.
