One of the best was an article about the Enola homosexual,that was the politically correct name of the Enola Gay fifty years after they dropped the bomb leading to the surrender of Japan in World War II

Sorry, this one I have to chalk up as fake news. The only article I can find is a link in PINK NEWS to a dead site www.observerchronicle.com looks like chum to me.

EDIT:
OK I did find THIS from 1994:

PC Run Amok

In exploring the controversy over the Smithsonian Institution exhibit on the Enola Gay, the plane that dropped a nuclear bomb on Hiroshima, the Northwest Herald of Crystal Lake, Ill., ran this headline:

"Atomic Bombers Criticize Enola [alternate lifestyle] Exhibit."

Sorry, I consider the Northwest Herald of Crystal Lake, Ill the 27th Estate

News by bots:

WASHINGTON — Having an "auto-replace" filter seemed like a good notion at the time to folks running the OneNewsNow.com website [removed]. There were certain words that would pop up from time to time in the Associated Press stories that moved onto the site that they considered a bit salacious, or unacceptable to post.

"We don't have the staff to monitor all the Hollywood stories," news director Fred Jackson said, "so we wanted an automated function." He said they put up the filter about a month or so ago.

It was in the northwest herald, you win the prize, but it was a different article. I used to teach a short bio about the pilot and what he felt dropping the bomb. Never had one student snicker about the Enola Gay, that’s why I always remembered the article
