TIMBUKTU, Dec 13th - "Last night, a car bomb exploded in front of the Timbuktu embassy in Chikata Rabula neighbourhood. No survivors, just meat..." That's how this story could start. However, as journalists we can't always be glad enough to find real selling stories. Man has to do what man has to do. When the magazine space needs filling, we will even tell you about the non-celebrity freak gossip. The following is one of them. Based on a true story. Of course, when before have journalists lied? “It was just horrible!” said Harry Twohooter after seeing a burning naked shemale flying out the 20th floor of his hotel. “We just kept staring and staring until he was down and then we returned to the champagne table." For Harry, it was a day like any other. He makes a living with it – with made-up stories, I mean. He is a seasoned journalist who has written for major publications around the world - Timbuktu, USA, Atlantis, Waterworld. You name it, he's got it. The years of experience have given him something that many new journalists don't have yet – insight and knowledge about HOW to write stories. What the stories mainly consist of and, most importantly, what sells and what doesn't. He came to this business in 1989 to see 'the other side' of the media. Now he is considered one of the most knowledgeable guys in this field. To prove it, he has quit writing usual news stories and taken up the new side of the business – writing fake stories. His editors don't know about it - yet! His latest story made to the articles all-time TOP 10! It was entitled, “Bush Shall Not Kill Kerry,” which talked about the torture of Senator Kerry just before he said he will NOT contest the results of the elections. Harry talked about this event very thouroughly covering all the possible aspects of this event that he could. He talked about the previous problems of the two men as a couple. Not very well known is the fact that they used to date in high school. He talked about why Senator Kerry ran against Bush at all. The break-up of the two high school mates had not been too friendly. Young Bush had run away with another boy and now Kerry thought it was good time for payback. He wanted to show Bush that he had done wrong when running away with Arnie. Arnie might be big and strong, with muscles and everything, but he was the one with sweet feelings, red handbag and cup full of brain. Forty years later, after having spent lots of years with his wife, Kerry decided to get back together with Bush and he thought the best way to do it is to prove that he can play the man's role as well, and even better than Arnie. However, as it turned out, Bush really did want to become the president. He didn't run for office just to show off as Kerry had thought at first. That's the moment when things caught fire. If you watched the three presidential debates then you know exactly what I am talking about. Bush explained what kind of a great man he is and Kerry tried to prove that he's more of a man than Bush. And so the debates went on. Kerry was always a bit better. On Election Day the unofficial votes showed that Kerry might win. This came as a shock to 'Boy George.' He didn't know what to do and he decided to talk to his advisors. They had always given him good advice during his first term, as they did now. They suggested that they torture Kerry until he securely transferred some of his votes to Bush. Continued On Next Page (weird news stories, Page 2) ...
