 Salah satunya adalah artikel berjudul, Chinese Woman Gives Birth to Septuplets, Has One Week To Choose yang dipublikasikan situs The Onion pada 15 Januari 1998. 

Berikut isi artikel tersebut:

SHANGHAI, CHINA—In the second such documented case ever, Jinan Huang, a 33-year-old Shanghai woman, gave birth to septuplets Monday.

 Jinan, who is in stable condition following the 31-hour delivery, has been given one week by government officials to decide which child she will keep.

  "My husband and I have not decided for certain," said Jinan, speaking to reporters from her hospital bed shortly after the miraculous birth. "But we are very much considering keeping the second-born boy. He is the heaviest and, therefore, the most likely to survive and tend to us in our old age."

"We definitely do not want either of the two girls," Jinan's husband Lin said. "Of that much we are certain."

  The six children not selected will, in accordance with Chinese multiple-birth law, be thrown off a mountaintop.

Since China's one-child-per-family law went into effect in 1983, more than 65 million multiple-birth babies have been put to death in the country.

Jinan, who said she had tried to have a baby for years, vehemently denied taking fertility drugs, the use of which is punishable by death in China. "I do not know how this happened," she said. "To my fellow citizens and our nation's leaders, I wish to apologize for this shameful and irresponsible multiple birth." 

Dalam artikel dijelaskan bahwa, Jinan Huang (33) melahirkan anak kembar tujuh dalam persalinan yang menghabiskan waktu selama 31 jam. Ia konon diberi waktu seminggu untuk memilih anak mana yang akan dibesarkan. 

Hal itu diklaim terkait kebijakan satu keluarga satu anak Pemerintah China. 

Ada sedikit perbedaan dalam artikel The Onion dan situs zei6iaqu-fey3ybur3q-an.justsharedthis.info, namun nama, usia, dan  narasinya sama.

Berikut ulasan dalam situs tersebut yang menjelaskan the onion:

The Onion is an American satirical digital media company and newspaper organization that publishes articles on international, national, and local news. Based in Chicago, the company originated as a weekly print publication on August 29, 1988 in Madison, Wisconsin.[1] In the spring of 1996, The Onion began publishing online. In 2007, the organization began publishing satirical news audio and video online, as the Onion News Network. In 2013, The Onion ceased publishing its print edition and launched Onion Labs, an advertising agency.[3][4]

The Onion's articles cover current events, both real and fictional, satirizing the tone and format of traditional news organizations with stories, editorials, op-ed pieces, and man-on-the-street interviews using a traditional news website layout and an editorial voice modeled after that of the Associated Press. The publication's humor often depends on presenting mundane, everyday events as newsworthy, surreal, or alarming (such as "Rotation of Earth Throws Entire North American Continent into Darkness").[5] In 1999, comedian Bob Odenkirk praised the publication, stating, "It's the best comedy writing in the country, and it has been since it started."[6]

The Onion also runs The A.V. Club and ClickHole. Initially created in 1993 as a supplement to the parent publication, The A.V. Club is an entertainment and pop culture publication that contains interviews and reviews of newly released media and other weekly features. ClickHole is a satirical website from The Onion founded in 2014 that parodies clickbait websites such as BuzzFeed and Upworthy.[7]

The 12 babies were all born at Wuhan 11th Hospital in central China's Hubei Province between 17-22 April. Three of the six pairs are twin brothers, two pairs are a boy and a girl and there is also a pair of twin girls.
