Texas TravestyThe Texas Travesty is the largest student-produced humor publication in the United States. All production and creative work takes place at the University of Texas at Austin. The Travesty began in 1997 as an online-only publication by the Butler brothers. After a few years of independent, online-only publishing, the publication appealed for inclusion within Texas Student Publications (now Texas Student Media), a UT auxiliary enterprise, which publishes The Daily Texan and produces KVRX Radio and KVR-TV. The staff produces six issues each school year, three each semester. Currently, no formal summer print edition exists, although the final spring issue is larger than any other edition. The Travesty currently has a print distribution of 25,000 to 30,000, in addition to thousands of online readers. The Travesty is supported by UT student fees and advertising revenue. As a publication within TSM, The Travesty shares some revenue and expenses with the general TSM organization. Awards - Best of Austin 2004: Best Local Publication (Readers' Poll, Austin Chronicle)
