Is this an onion article? Those newsmax folks censor more than triggered saidit mods

If it is satire, I certainly fell for it. An internet search for Greg Kelly a "Male Karen," gives a few hits:

Not really the top-shelf news sources. Here is a link to what claims to be the tweets in question:

Wait, that's really him admitting to going to McDonalds... Then "I demanded to see the manager" after not seeing some food item on the menu? This is an adult? And a paid actor at "newsmax"? [scratches head] What the heck? 🤡

Now I'm wondering if this is the same tantrum who talked over the mypillow guy, then stamped off camera when the MPG wouldn't submit to his rudeness.

When workers at a McDonald's called ultra-conservative Newsmax host Greg Kelly a "Male Karen," he wasn't lovin' it.

In fact, the former co-host of Fox and Friends said he walked out after he asked to see the manager when he discovered there was no "McFish" on the fast-food chain's menu.

A "Karen" has become a pejorative term for entitled, typically White, women who use their privilege and demand to see the manager whenever they are displeased.

It appeared Kelly fit the description for a male counterpart.

According to a tweet in which he aired his grievances about his visit to the golden arches, he said the workers accused him of being a "Male Karen" after he "demanded to see the 'manager.'"
