Weekly World News. Shock...horror...closing

The Weekly World News, one of the most outrageous of the supermarket tabloids -- known for headlines like: "Ka-Boob - Woman's Breast Implant Explodes"-- is being discontinued, and the name will carry on only as a website. It was published by American Media, which also publishes the National Enquirer. When the plug was pulled, WEN had only 80,000 sales a week (compared with the Enquirer's 800,000).
