Death of a Media Giant
While there are a wealth of print publications that cover the usual stories, there's only one brave enough to cover stories otherwise overlooked by mainstream media. Did the New York Times ever so much as offer a single column inch to the alien who has met with many US presidents and political talk show hosts? Did the Washington Post ever have a birth announcement for Bigfoot's various babies? Did the San Francisco Chronicle ever mention Bat Boy's cross country rampage? Absolutely not! Nobody covered these stories and oh so many more like the Weekly World News. The only journalist to come close is Riley Martin. This fine publication has not only informed me of these incredibly important yet overlooked news stories, but it has made waiting on otherwise excruciating long checkout lines a little more bearable. Weekly World News, the world will be a slightly dumber place without your brilliant news reportage. I guess I'll have to start getting my news from Fox now.![]() I was incredibly sad today to find out that one of my favorite news sources is forever shutting its doors.

post a commentDAMN DAMN DAMN! i was having a good day until i leanred this news on your blog... surely this is the work of the anit-bat boy religious right...
Not all the religious right is against Bat Boy. I heard that Ted Haggard gave him a blow job.
the real question is what are they going to fill that spot in the checkout line with now?? probably Oprah . . .
Nooooo!
The hell!?
What am I supposed to do at the check-out line in Giant? (then again, I should have bought it rather than just read it... That's kind of the point, right?)
Oh great, now all I will have to read in the check out line is how oprah and Rachael ray are fighting weight problems!
