Things I Think Everyone Should Know About

I used to have the Weekly World News that broke the story about Saddam and Osama having adopted a baby orangutan. Why oh why did I throw that away?

David_Dovey:
Tabloid refers to the format (paper size) rather than the content, although it does tend to follow that most tabloid-sized papers are more given to sensationalism than their broadsheet counterparts.

The Daily Telegraph isn't in the same vein as the Weekly World News or such in that it does report "real news" (albeit with much more celebrity-based stuff in the editorial pages than a more "respectable" paper) but the standards of journalism aren't exactly high so the "real news" still gets reported with an eye to rabble-rousing than balanced fact-based reportage.

RedLion:
I can't find a link at this moment, but some guy got arrested for sexually abusing a very young minor. His response? To press charges of sexual assault on him...agaisnt Big Foot.

Yep. His excuse for destroying what should be the most wonderful experience for a human for all of their life is that he was raped by Big Foot.

RE Africa's deserts:
There is a reason why it starves so much folks (along with hella political instability).  Only Antarctica and Australia are dryer.
