Manic Monday--Newsies!!

So, one of Everytown's crack investigative reporters has written an "expose" proving that Uncle Sam is a fraud (click to embiggen).

Must have been a slow news day.

Well, Sam manages to prove himself real and super-keen. So, does said reporter issue a retraction, or an apology? Nope, she gets married!!

So:

Yes, because "BUDDY SAYS" should be proof enough for anybody. And the byline alone will convince folks:

Also, obviously another slow news day...

I can see the future headlines based upon this principle:

NIXON NOT A CROOK...LIDDY SAYS!!

SANTA REAL...ELF SAYS!!

SPIDER-MAN NEITHER THREAT NOR MENACE...PETER PARKER SAYS!!

BATMAN DOES NOT JEOPARDIZE MINORS--JASON TODD SAYS!!

OK, I'll stop now...
