The Onion was founded in 1988 and originally published in Madison, Wisconsin by two juniors at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, Tim Keck and Christopher Johnson; they sold it to colleagues the following year. Prior to founding, The Onion was a four page spread of satirical news first printed in 1986 by undergraduate students in the University of Wisconsin-Madison's dormitory Tripp Hall. The paper's name was influenced by the nickname for the University's Memorial union student center, about which students would say, "See you at the 'un-yun'!" Cessation of this early version of The Onion was reported at the time to be due to the University Administration's objection to a business venture being operated from the dormitory. The Onion was at first only a success in a limited number of cities and towns, notably those with major universities (e.g. Madison, Milwaukee, Chicago, Boulder). The creation of its website in 1996 allowed it to receive national attention. In 2000 as the publication had broken through to the mass market, The Onion was approached by Comedy Central for a buyout that would broaden the scope and reach of The Onion's brand of satire into other forms of media. While the editorial staff was enthusiastic about the move, the deal was ultimately scuttled by then-owner Peter Haise when his negotiations with Comedy Central fell flat and alienated Comedy Central's management. Despondent over the botched deal, the editorial staff threatened to leave en masse for New York City with or without The Onion affiliation. In a compromise motivated to keep the company alive, in early 2001 the company relocated its offices to New York City. Nevertheless, the paper continues to make occasional Madison references, placing odd stories in surrounding towns or running photographs of local landmarks to illustrate stories set elsewhere. In April 2007, The Onion launched 'The Onion News Network,' a web video send up of 24 hour TV news.

The paper's founders went on to become publishers of other alternative weeklies: Keck of the Seattle weekly The Stranger and Johnson of Albuquerque's Weekly Alibi.
