"Why on earth did you buy that supermarket tabloid?" "Because it's hilarious! Listen: "Two-Headed Bigfoot Shot By Iowa Cop!"*" "It's clever! It's parody! Nobody believes this stuff!" "Do they?" *Weekly World News
When I was in the high school debate club, we’d buy a Weekly World News on our trips so we could debate the articles. Whoever came up with the most outlandish reasons why whatever they were reporting was possible won.
The guys who created Bigfoot and the guys who created crop circles have both gone public on how they did it, showed their costume/equipment/techniques and STILL people believe in the myths!
