Attention Twitter followers of Levar Burton: the Onion has been online 13 years and is not an actual news outlet.


Yesterday Twitter followers of Levar Burton were outraged that he had penned on Op-Ed entitled "My Living Nightmare Of Encouraging Kids To Read Is Over" in the Onion.


His Star Trek followers likely knew the Onion is a satirical publication but Levar had to let the public television crowd know that he didn't actually author the article.


levarburton: Attention all un-believers THE ONION is satirical parody of news events and meant to be enjoyed as such! No I did not write it! Relax, OK?



The only revelation that might have been more devastating for these people is that Mark Russell cannot actually play the piano.
