For readers who follow Australian politics and current affairs but prefer a comic take, The Shovel turns news topics into satirical articles, usually written in the style of mock news reports. Its stories cover Australian and international affairs, sport, entertainment and public figures, using fictional headlines and scenarios for humour rather than straightforward reporting. Browse recent and trending stories on the site, revisit older pieces, or sign up for an email newsletter with new articles. The Shovel suits readers looking for Australian news satire and comedy; its stories are not factual news reports.
