Yes, but notice that there is no DATE for the ‘newspaper clipping’.

I did a Google search and the only place this story shows up is Free Republic, and one other website the states they got it from Free Republic.(gotnewswire.com)

It doesn’t show up on Google for ISSUU.com because it’s a scanned newspaper clip.

I suspect this ISSUU.com is a BS website, that they are just scanning old newspaper clippings and presenting them as NEW, and that their website is full of viruses.

ISSUU.com is a website that lets producers of print materials publish pdfs in a platform-agnostic browser-based format.

Simply stated, it presents scanned photos or multi-page pdfs in a format that any brower (Mac, PC, Mobile) can read. You've probably read embedded pdfs online without realizing you were using an ISSUU reader.

People who 'publish' their pdfs to ISSUU can get embed codes so that they can place readable pdfs into webpages.

ISSUU is just a subscription service, not a publisher; if you have a beef, take it up with the people who post to ISSUU**.

(I am a user of ISSUU, and have no interest in the company)
