Sure, I've been mocking the
1979 National Enquirer bits, but have I ever really considered just how far the
National Enquirer has gone? No, I don't mean the depths of hell, the limits of decency -- I mean on the
map.
All for me!
Oh, the quality reporting! Logging 1,183,338 miles, they went to London to cover the world's first test tube baby and even went to Guyana twice in '78 to cover the Jamestown suicides.
And don't you go thinking they just sent 'reporters' to Alaska to gather information about "secret Soviet psychic research" -- they went to Moscow too.
