For thirty years, the \u003ci\u003eWeekly World News\u003c\/i\u003e shocked America in the supermarket checkout line with front-page headlines about Bat Boy, alien abductions, angel visitations, Bigfoot's love slaves, and Elvis—alive and well, and running a crocodile farm in Tampa.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eTim Ellsrow is the son of journalism royalty—his father runs the \u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e and keeps three Pulitzers on the shelf. When Dad refuses to hire him, Tim strikes back by taking a job at the one paper guaranteed to mortify the family name: the \u003ci\u003eWeekly World News\u003c\/i\u003e. The plan: embarrass his father so badly with fake news that the old man is forced to hire him just to save the family's reputation. It's foolproof—right up until Tim discovers that every outrageous story the tabloid prints is true.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003ePartnered with Jenna Ritz, a conspiracy-junkie photographer famous for the blurriest Loch Ness photo ever published (and hiding a secret bigger than any front page), Tim chases assignments ripped from real \u003ci\u003eWeekly World News\u003c\/i\u003e headlines: a drilling operation about to crack the ceiling of Hell, a Nazi time machine disguised as a Florida roller coaster, a long-haul trucker who shot down a UFO full of alien zoo animals.
