Bigfoot, The Lake Erie Monster and countless other stories the "Mainstream Media" is afraid to report...that's right The Weekly World News.: The World's Only Reliable News!! Described by the Washington Post as " America's foremost journal of surrealism and social satire" and by TvTropes as "American absurdist/parody supermarket tabloid" Join us as we join in on the fun with a VERY TONGUE IN CHEEK episode.
