"Hillary Clinton Adopts Alien Baby", "First Photos of Heaven", "Osama Captured by Rednecks!"
These are some of the bizarre headlines that you'll see on the cover of 'Weekly World News' -- a parody of magazines like National Enquirer.
From its inception, Weekly World News stood out from its competition with it's hilarious and sometimes true headlines. They claim to have discovered a half-human, half-boy being called 'Batboy' and they've run with that for years. So popular there was an off-Broadway musical made about him.
Join Tim and I as we discuss WWN's influence, impact, cover stories and more on this week's episode!
