Borowitz Jumps to 'New Yorker,' But Promises to Remain 'Slipshod and Innacurate'

Today, the magazine announced the launch of a newly expanded online humor section that will include the weekly’s “Shouts & Murmurs” essays and a new “Daily Shouts” blog made up of exclusive content from New Yorker writers and contributors like Jack Handey and comedian Bob Odenkirk. But the centerpiece of the new section will be political comedian and writer Andy Borowitz’s blog, The Borowitz Report, which has found a new home on NewYorker.com.
