DISCLAIMER

Welcome to SoupNutz, a satirical media platform dedicated to investigative commentary, parody, and public interest reporting. By accessing this website, listening to our podcasts, or otherwise engaging with SoupNutz content, you acknowledge and agree to the following terms:


1. SATIRE, OPINION, AND COMMENTARY – NOT FACTUAL NEWS

The content on this website—including articles, headlines, podcasts, AI-generated text, and other materials—is intended as satire, opinion, and commentary. While our work is informed by real-world events, it is not straight journalism and should not be interpreted as objective news reporting.

Any resemblance to actual persons, living or deceased, is either entirely coincidental or based on the actions of public figures subject to scrutiny under First Amendment protections. We make no representations or warranties regarding the accuracy or reliability of any information contained herein.

Under Hustler Magazine, Inc. v. Falwell, 485 U.S. 46 (1988), satire and parody are constitutionally protected speech, even when they offend, criticize, or mock public figures. If you’re mad, take it up with the Supreme Court.


2. ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE & AUTOMATED CONTENT

SoupNutz uses artificial intelligence (AI) to generate its content. AI is a powerful tool, but not an infallible source of information. While we strive for accuracy in our fact-based references, AI-generated text may contain errors, outdated information, or phrasing that does not perfectly align with human intent.

If you believe any content contains a factual inaccuracy (not an opinion you dislike), please submit a correction request via the Contact Us form at the bottom of the about page. We will review legitimate claims and update content as needed.

AI Liability Disclaimer:

SoupNutz assumes no responsibility for actions taken based on AI-generated text. AI does not practice law, provide medical advice, or consult on financial matters. If you make life decisions based on our AI-assisted satire, that’s a you problem.


3. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY & PERSONAL RISK ASSUMPTION

By using this site, you acknowledge that:

  • You assume all risks associated with consuming our content.
  • SoupNutz is not liable for emotional distress, existential crises, or sudden urges to overthrow a city council meeting.
  • If you choke on your lunch while laughing at a podcast episode, that’s unfortunate, but not our fault.
  • If you read our blog while driving and crash, we recommend better decision-making next time.
  • If you experience severe disbelief that taxpayer money was spent on a vanity project, we share your frustration, but again—not liable.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, SoupNutz, its owners, contributors, and affiliates disclaim all liability for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of this site.

If you have a legal dispute with SoupNutz, you agree to resolve it through arbitration in a jurisdiction of our choosing, rather than through litigation. Because courtrooms are expensive, and quite frankly, we’d rather spend our time finding out why Mayor Jim is swapping land like it’s a game of Settlers of Catan.


4. DEFAMATION, PUBLIC FIGURES, & YOUR FEELINGS

SoupNutz engages in satirical criticism of public officials, government agencies, and institutions. As established under New York Times Co. v. Sullivan, 376 U.S. 254 (1964), public figures face a higher burden of proof when claiming defamation.

We do not knowingly publish false statements as fact. However, we reserve the right to mock, parody, criticize, and call out absurd behavior, misuse of public funds, and general political buffoonery.

If you are a public official and feel offended by our satire, we encourage self-reflection and better governance before pursuing legal action.


5. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY & CONTENT USAGE

All content on this site—including AI-generated articles, graphics, and podcast episodes—is protected under copyright law. Unauthorized reproduction, republication, or scraping of our content without permission is strictly prohibited.

Sharing links, quoting excerpts with attribution, and engaging in spirited debate? Encouraged.

Stealing our work and passing it off as your own? We’ll mock you publicly.


6. FINAL WORDS (READ THIS OR REGRET IT LATER)

By continuing to use this website, you explicitly acknowledge that you understand and accept the above disclaimers. If you do not agree, you are free to leave and find a more boring corner of the internet.

For legitimate correction requests (not emotional outbursts), please use the Contact Us form at the bottom of the about page..

If you still think you have a lawsuit, ask yourself this: “Is my ego worth losing a case I can’t win?”


SoupNutz: Not liable for choking, confusion, or your sudden realization that local government is, in fact, a disaster.
