One of my brothers subscribes to WWN. He loves it! The stories are so hilarious, so completely over the top! The editor (I think his name is Ed Anger) is, according to my Bro., clearly a conservative. One of the reasons my brother enjoys it so much is because of its clever digs at liberalism.

It would be fun to write for them, I admit, but I don't think I'm creative enough!! Bigfoot in a panty raid??? I loved the wedding pics of Osama and Saddam -- did you see that one, where Saddam was the bride and Osama was the groom? Photographic PROOF of their nuptials! Probably the best and funniest headline for me, though, was when Kerry and Edwards were going through the hugging phase, where they couldn't keep their hands off each other ... and WWN ran a cover headline something to the effect that aliens wanted a hug from Kerry, too.

FWIW, the paper must be pretty popular. They don't last long in the grocery stores, while their competing tabs linger. IMO, Weekly World News sets the gold standard of tabloid journalism -- sensational but accurate!

Well, BatBoy is certainly an FR favorite. :-)
