Logan Paul Claims Prime Perfectly Healthy For Average 9-Foot-Tall, 400-Pound Child

Question

The article humorously claims that Logan Paul’s drink, Prime, is perfectly healthy for a fictional 9-foot-tall, 400-pound child, arguing that such children can safely consume the drink’s high caffeine content. The piece mocks the absurdity of over-exaggerated health claims while highlighting concerns about the drink's effects on smaller children.

Comments

The Onion, which is the publisher of the article provided, is a digital media company that posts satirical news. This may be confusing to people who don't know The Onion is satire. Regardless of the satire, it looks convincing but does not provide any links to where Logan Paul said this. So if the claim was said, it would not be a helpful article as it is crucial for journalists to state where a celebrity has said something.

Answer 1

I could not find any evidence of Logan Paul saying the things attributed to him in this article. It is worth pointing out that the article being cited is published by The Onion, an online media company known for its satirical news stories. As such, it should probably not be referred to as a reliable source of factual reporting. Despite claiming "humble beginnings as a print newspaper in 1756" on its About Us page, in addition to an incredible "daily readership of 4.3 trillion," The Onion was actually founded in 1988 as a weekly print publication, before beginning its transition to online publication in 1996.
