Just found this story on Khaosod English and could not help wondering how many of these stories are actually true and how many are fabricated -
www.khaosodenglish.com/detail.php?newsid=1464165135
Do they create these stories on slow news days just to bump up circulation, or are they actually true ? Either way I am sure "webfact" spends a lot of time on their site looking for juicy stories to publish on his site, for the same reason, to attract readers (clicks)
Don't know what the equivalent is in England and the USA but in Australia there used to be a newspaper called the "Melbourne Truth" which was wrongly named because 99% of the stories in it were absolute bs, but they used to sell up to 400,000 of copies every week, to a certain percentage of the population.
Published from 1902 - 1995, "one of its most famous headlines was written to announce the death of Sir Billy Snedden, who was rumoured to have died of a heart attack while having sexual intercourse with a woman: "Snedden Died On The Job"..............from Wiki
.............."In its final years, the newspaper was noted for its eclectic coverage, which combined photos of women with big bare breasts on page 3 (recycled from the The Sun (United Kingdom) newspaper"................from Wiki
