On September 15, 2021, [[Doughnut Sprinkles]] created the Doughnut News Discord server, which began as a joke. News reports would consist of a single sentence summarizing the event in question. After amassing nearly 20 people on the first day, support from the inaugural audience began to build. What Sprinkles intended to be a joke to last a day quickly became a sensation in the community, and began to expand and establish itself as a worthy competitor in the news industry. A few weeks later, Sprinkles would go on to hire a small team to increase the output of content. Over the next few months, Doughnut News would continue to expand and increase its viewership. | On September 15, 2021, [[Doughnut Sprinkles]] created the Doughnut News Discord server, which began as a joke.
