What's The Best "Weekly World News" Headline Ever?
It's a sad day in America. The Weekly World News, reliable for its surreal and barely-tethered-to-reality news stories, is folding after being around since the late 80's. Created as a placeholder for stories The National Enquirer found too dubious (!) to print, WWN boasted writers who had left The New York Times and The Philadelphia Inquirer for the chance to write about "events that seemed to occur in a parallel universe...where pop culture mixed with urban legends, conspiracy theories and hallucinations," as one writer put it so eloquently.

The Weekly World News is like the anti-New York Times. But sometimes, you gotta have some respite from depressing news and find out what's going on in the land of Big Foot. Good to hear he's shedding the pounds in time for summer.
